WSUK supplies Tamworth food and cold-chain employers with vetted temporary production, packing and warehouse operatives at short notice. We handle right-to-work, food-hygiene and site inductions, PAYE payroll and compliance, scaling teams up or down as demand across Relay Park and the Tame Valley estates rises and falls through the year.
Tamworth sits on the M42 (J10) and A5, a major Midlands logistics and FMCG hub with cold-chain, food and distribution units across Relay Park, Tame Valley Industrial Estate and Amington. WSUK supplies temporary food production and warehouse staff into these sites, covering seasonal peaks, promotions and short-notice absence for local food processors, packers and food logistics employers.
Tamworth stands at the M42 (J10) and A5 crossroads, one of the Midlands' busiest logistics and FMCG locations. Relay Park, Tame Valley Industrial Estate and the Amington and Bonehill estates host national distribution, cold storage and food packing operators, feeding a heavy grocery and consumer-goods supply chain. The town links fast to Lichfield, Cannock, Nuneaton and Atherstone, and the M42, M6 Toll and A5 put most of the Midlands within an hour. This makes Tamworth prime ground for food manufacturers, chilled distributors and 3PL operators moving high volume to retailers. WSUK understands these estates, the retail deadlines they serve and the round-the-clock shift patterns their chilled and ambient food operations run through promotional and seasonal peaks.
Food and FMCG employers around Tamworth use temporary production and warehouse staff to meet retail promotions, seasonal peaks, contract mobilisations and absence cover without missing dispatch. WSUK supplies food production operatives, packing and line operatives, food prep, BRC hygiene and cleaning, quality and goods-in, plus chilled warehouse and FLT staff for food sites. Each worker is vetted with right-to-work checks, given food-hygiene and site inductions, and paid through compliant PAYE payroll. We take on timesheets, cover and compliance so your supervisors stay on the line. When a Relay Park contract ramps or a chilled shift is short, we scale the team quickly and wind it back down cleanly.
