A bicycle parts and accessories firm has brought 60 jobs to the region as part of £3m expansion.
Zyro, a privately owned bicycle parts and accessories distributor, has recently relocated to a 100,000sq ft warehouse and office at Faverdale, Darlington, recruiting 60 new staff - taking its total workforce to 150.
The company has been on the rise since its foundation in 1995 by Simon and Julie Ellison.
Originally based in Yorkshire, they have developed rapidly in the past few years taking on several new brands and expanding their range to cope with the recent rise in cycling the UK and Ireland has experienced
Zyro has invested more than £3m in the new site, pictured right, which marks an increase of nearly three times the warehouse space over their previous premises.
And it is looking to expand its business further over the coming months as cycling goes from strength to strength in the run up to the Tour de France’s Grand Depart in Yorkshire.
The distributor carries 30 brands, including their own cycle clothing brand Altura, Cateye, ABUS and CamelBak and has recently expanded taking on internationally renowned helmet, clothing and component manufacturers Giro, Bell and Easton.
In addition to their warehouse it has departments including finance, sales, brand management, operations, marketing and product design with a range of roles in each.
