Leading logistics, materials, and operations management specialist, ASCO, has officially opened an office at the Wilton Centre in Teesside, strengthening its local presence in one of the UK’s most active energy, industrial, and infrastructure clusters.

The new Redcar office will act as a regional hub for ASCO’s opera-tions across Central UK and North East England, supporting work already underway across major projects including Net Zero Tees-side and the Hornsea 3 and Dogger Bank offshore windfarms as well as wider activity across defence, port, marine, offshore wind and industrial markets.

Across the region, ASCO is delivering integrated support across quayside delivery, ships agency, storage, workforce and recruitment, logistics, materials management, fuels, lift-ing assurance and environmental services, including hazardous and non-hazardous waste management.

ASCO is also the exclusive provider of quayside management services at Steel River Quay, forming an integral part of the Teesworks complex and supporting nearly 70 jobs. Through this role, ASCO provides integrated logistics, supply chain, materials, warehousing and critical marine services, placing the company close to the infrastructure and activity needed to help major projects move safely and efficiently through the region.

Ryan Thompson, Business Development Manager Central UK at ASCO, who will manage the Teesside office, said: “Opening our Teesside office is an important step for ASCO and reflects the scale of activity we are already supporting across the region.

“Teesside is playing a major role in the UK’s changing energy and industrial landscape, from decarbonisation and offshore wind to defence, port, marine and complex logistics activity. By establishing a permanent presence at the Wilton Centre, we are placing our people and expertise closer to the customers, infrastructure and partners driving that growth."

Allan Scott, UK Managing Director at ASCO, added: “Teesside and the wider North East have a long industrial heritage, and we are seeing that evolve again as the region builds on its established strengths, takes on a bigger role in the UK’s energy transition and responds to growing opportunities in defence.

“There is a strong industrial base across the region, with the infra-structure, skills and supply chain capability to support that next phase of growth. Our new office gives us a permanent base in Teesside, combining local presence with ASCO’s wider UK and international capability and supporting both immediate project de-livery and long-term regional growth.”
