An East Yorkshire business ensuring regional enterprise bucks a national rural broadband struggle is raising the glass to the ongoing success of a client it helped save.
Quickline Communications is rolling out its fixed broadband network in Yorkshire and Lincolnshire, from its Willerby headquarters. And in doing so it is toasting the great strides made by a firm across Hull, Great Newsome Brewery, who put its ability to stay in business down to jumping on board.
The Holderness firm was doing minimal online trade pre-Covid, and having signed up just before the pandemic, hasn’t looked back. And having emerged stronger after web sales went from 2 per cent to 90 per cent as lockdown restrictions hit, it has also diversified further with its enhanced digital footprint.
