Insurance firm opens in region

A BLACK Country firm of insurance brokers is launching a Yorkshire branch as part of a national expansion plan.

Dudley-based Gravity Risk Services is opening a Bradford office to take its insurance services to a wider audience.

The company has been steadily growing for five years and over the past six months has taken on four new staff to bolster specific areas of the business.

The new Bradford branch, in Thornbury Road, will provide business-to-business insurance packages to firms in the North, after bosses attracted senior personnel from competitors.

Dale Collett, director at Gravity Risk Services, said: “We’re excited about the Bradford branch because that will allow us to tap into new clients.”
