Sussex Transport makes deliveries up and down the UK, and indeed overseas, to some of the most prestigious market leading names in business.
Back in the early 80s Richard Branson was probably best known for Virgin Records and in 1984, much to the horror of his directors, Richard announced to the world that a high quality, value for money airline would begin operating within three months. Indeed, three months later an aircraft packed with celebrities was flying with Virgin! By the end of the decade Virgin had flown over 1 million passengers and started shaking up services onboard by being the first airline to offer individual TVs to their business class passengers! In 2010 Virgin Atlantic carried 5.3 million passengers, making it the eighth largest UK airline based on passenger numbers. According to Virgin.
Sussex Transport made a delivery last week to the Head Office of Virgin Atlantic based at Manor Royal in Crawley.
Manor Royal is the largest business park in West Sussex , covering an area of 240 hectares, was officially named and opened by HRH Princess Elizabeth (later Queen Elizabeth II) on the 25 January 1950 and Virgin Atlantic have been based here since 1997. The Manor Royal business area is the largest in West Sussex with around 500 businesses employing 30,000 people. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manor_Royal
