Global courier business Crossflight Limited is expanding its presence at SEGRO's Kings Norton Business Centre in Birmingham to manage the increased demand for its business.

Crossflight currently occupies two small units and will be expanding into one 14,000 sq ft unit on Crown Road.

The company offers a wide range of high quality distribution solutions worldwide, including express courier, freight, mail and fulfilment, and logistics, making a Midlands base a must for the business.

SEGRO leasing manager Jane Leedham said: "At SEGRO we pride ourselves on doing everything we can to support our occupiers. Crossflight is a great customer at Kings Norton and we're delighted that their business has been so successful we are able to help them move into larger premises.

"Crossflight will continue to benefit from all the facilities offered to customers at Kings Norton including 24-hour security, CCTV systems and on-site support."

David Hicks, procurement manager for Crossflight, said: "Our Midlands base has been at SEGRO's  Kings Norton Business Centre for many years. We find the centre the perfect location for our needs, but we outgrew our space. Previously, we occupied two different units and with demand for business increasing we wanted to expand the premises to a larger, more suitable location.

"The very nature of our business - international courier, freight, mail and logistics - requires us to be well positioned close to our Midlands customer base and essential transport links. Birmingham is an optimum location with its close proximity to the motorway network and its international airport, ensuring ready access to our global distribution network."

Crossflight was established in 1987, and has a London headquarters close to Heathrow airport.

Kings Norton Business Centre is the premier Business Centre in south Birmingham, meeting the business space needs of a diverse range of companies. Located on a 24.3 hectare (60 acre) site, its local management team is able to cater for the needs of the occupiers from its on-site regional office. The estate is maintained on a structured basis providing a first class business and working environment, with tenants benefiting from 24-hour mobile security, CCTV coverage and consequential low crime rates.
