XPO Logistics to sponsor Tamworth Pride Festival

Freight transportation services provider XPO Logistics is sponsoring the first-ever Tamworth Pride Festival on 14-15 August in Staffordshire. 

According to the company, the theme of the event, “Celebrating You”, also signals XPO’s support of LGBTQ+ employees and allies in the UK.

Dan Myers, managing director – UK and Ireland, XPO Logistics, said: ”Diversity makes sense for so many reasons. We can attract and retain the very best talent in tough labour markets, it supports better decision-making by drawing on a wider range of views, and it’s just the right thing to do. 

“It’s important to everyone at XPO that our colleagues from the LGBTQ+ community feel welcome, valued and included.”
