Leicestershire is one of the UK's most important logistics and distribution hubs, with the East Midlands Airport cargo zone and major distribution parks around Hinckley, Lutterworth, and Leicester generating large volumes of steel-framed warehouse construction. The county's strong manufacturing base — including automotive components and food processing — also drives demand for plant and machinery shot blasting.
