Regional Hub
East Midlands Vehicle Hire. The A1/M1 Corridor and a Major Distribution Base.
The East Midlands sits at the centre of the UK's freight and distribution network. The A1/M1 corridor connects Nottingham and Leicester to London; Derby's manufacturing cluster includes Rolls-Royce and Toyota supply chain businesses; and Northampton has become a significant logistics and warehousing hub. These different commercial bases create varied van and commercial vehicle requirements across the region.
