Eddie Stobart offers training for logistics industry

Eddie Stobart expanded its inhouse training academy to include the wider logistics and supply chain industry.

The academy was originally opened back in 2015 to help attract and retain Eddie Stobart staff.

“Safeguarding the flexibility and agility of our industry is a responsibility we take very seriously,” said Alex Laffey, chief executive of Eddie Stobart. “The supply chain is critical to the success of UK PLC and the skillsets required now for success are expanding as we adapt to key trends such as the rapid growth of e-commerce and customer demands for increasingly shorter lead times.

“We are proud to open the doors of our Training Academy, bringing new people into the industry and helping to redefine the benchmark for our sector.”
