Eddie Stobart was bought out by WA Developments. WA Developments was owned by his brother William Stobart and Andrew Tinkler. WA Developments has since been renamed Stobart Rail and falls under the auspices of the Stobart Group, which lists it’s directors as Eddie Stobart, James Irlam, Stobart Ports, Stobart Properties and Stobart Rail. Confusing…!
It is a credit to see what these two local lads have done from humble beginings and to see the number of people they now employ all over GB and elsewhere.
In our area (■■■■■■■■ they are struggling with petted local councils and other groups to move forward with there business including the development of Carlisle airport as a center for Stobart haulage and a viable airport for the future of ■■■■■■■■
After the failure to agree with the council in Penrith on the terms on the proposed headquarters of Wa/Stobart on the now vacant industrial estate next to the M6 they moved the scheme to Carlisle to try again ,
I worked with WA when they only had 20 employees and know Andrew Tinkler personally he is a good man and deserves what he and his companies are trying to acheive in our area against the nimbys who want tourism and retirement areas, not haulage and real jobs,
So what chance have they got
PS I don,t work for them.
