Wasn’t " flagging out " used simply as a way to avoid paying UK road tax .

Yes, but there was also many companies that had genuine offices abroad long before anyone thought of ‘Flagging out’

Back in '97, Stobart bought/leased 3 pieces of land in Belgium (Veurne, Lokeren & St. Niklaas).
2 became depots ( Lokeren, St.Niklaas).
