Local Logistics Intelligence

Why Lichfield Food Employers Use Temporary Staff

Lichfield (WS13/WS14) sits on the A38 and A5 beside the M6 Toll (T5), with Fradley Park as its industrial anchor: over 300 acres and four million square feet of distribution, warehousing and manufacturing space hosting occupiers including Florette salads, Tesco, DHL, Screwfix and Yodel. Additional food and FMCG employers work from Britannia Enterprise Park, Trent Valley and the Wall Island corridor, with Cross City rail services linking Lichfield to Birmingham. The town borders the Burton upon Trent brewing and food belt, Tamworth's distribution estates and Cannock's logistics parks, placing it inside a dense Staffordshire food and drink supply network with fast motorway and trunk-road access in every direction.

Lichfield and Fradley food employers need temporary production and packing labour to cover fresh-produce and chilled-line peaks, retailer promotions, distribution surges and seasonal or absence gaps. WSUK supplies food production operatives, packing and line staff, food preparation workers, BRC hygiene and cleaning teams, quality and goods-in checkers and food-site FLT drivers. Each arrives right-to-work verified, referenced and food-hygiene and site-induction ready, with PAYE payroll and compliance handled by us. We scale crews up for busy fresh-produce and promotional periods and back down afterwards, so Fradley Park producers and distributors keep lines and pick faces staffed without permanent over-hiring.
