Quickline Unveils State-of-the-Art Logistics Hub in Leeds

Quickline Communications Limited, a leading provider of ultrafast and superfast broadband services across Northern England and beyond, announced the grand opening of its cutting-edge logistics hub and training center in Leeds on Wednesday. The sprawling 20,000 sq ft facility represents a £2.5 million investment and is set to create over 90 new jobs in the region.

Expanding Broadband Access

The opening of the Leeds hub marks a significant milestone in Quickline’s mission to bring high-speed internet access to underserved rural communities. “We’re thrilled to establish roots in Leeds with this new facility,” said Sean Royce, Quickline’s CEO. “It will enable us to accelerate our broadband rollout and connect more homes and businesses than ever before.”

Strategically positioned near major motorways, the logistics hub will serve as a central dispatch point for Quickline’s fleet of installation vehicles and engineering teams. The company plans to deploy fiber-optic broadband to an additional 500,000 premises by 2025.

Training the Next Generation

In addition to streamlining logistics, the Leeds facility will house a state-of-the-art training center to develop the skills of Quickline’s expanding workforce. “The demand for reliable broadband has never been higher,” noted Hayley Silvester, Head of People. “We’re investing heavily in our people to meet that demand and deliver exceptional service.”

The training center features interactive classrooms, hands-on workshops, and simulated installation environments. Quickline expects to train over 100 new field engineers and support staff by year’s end.

Transforming Rural Communities

For residents like Sarah Thompson, who runs a small business from her home in rural North Yorkshire, Quickline’s expansion is a game-changer. “I used to struggle with slow, unreliable internet,” she said. “Since switching to Quickline, I can finally run my business smoothly and stay connected with clients.”

Quickline’s ultrafast broadband packages, with speeds up to 1 Gbps, start at just £39.99 per month. The company has already connected over 30,000 rural homes and businesses, with plans to reach 500,000 more in the coming years.

Investing in the Future

The Leeds logistics hub and training center represent a major investment in the region’s digital infrastructure and workforce. Quickline has committed over £500 million to expand its network and services across Northern England, Scotland, and beyond.

“We’re not just investing in technology,” emphasized Royce. “We’re investing in communities, in people, and in the future of our digital economy.” With its ambitious plans and cutting-edge facilities, Quickline is well-positioned to lead the charge in bridging the digital divide for rural Britain.
