UK: Improving the Strength of our Business Through Building a Local Supply Chain - Millfield Composites

Case Study 3 minute read

Meet our UK supplier Millfield Composites, who have been providing parts for manufacturing of trains at our Newton Aycliffe since 2017.

As a local supplier located in Newcastle-upon-Tyne, Millfield’s business has grown through working with us. As a result of our partnership,  Millfield has also exported parts to Hitachi’s plants in both Italy and Japan.

Our collaboration is a great example of how we have built an extensive British supply chain. We are proud to have brought train manufacturing back to its original home in the North East of England.
