This is despite a freight base market of Pharmaceuticals,Del la Rue ,Nissan etc. combined with an aviation void in the area , meanwhile, Teesside scraped along, just surviving.
Teesside now appear to have found a market and despite minimal freight so far, it appears that the future could be brighter due to the pro active Mayor and airport management?
