Celebrating 10 Years of NN1 Personnel

January 21st, 2025

Wow, can you believe it? NN1 Personnel is celebrating 10 years anniversary this week!!! This isn’t just any milestone—it’s our first huge one, and we’re bursting with pride. From our humble beginnings in 2015 to becoming an award-winning driver agency in Northamptonshire, this journey has been nothing short of extraordinary. It’s a story of grit, determination, and a community of incredible people—our team, clients, and drivers. They have supported us every step of the way. We would like to take a moment to reflect on everything that brought us here and celebrate the success we’ve built together!

How It All Began

NN1 Personnel was founded in 2015 with a clear vision: to provide reliable, professional, and friendly driver recruitment services. After a bad experience with recruitment agencies, Justyna and Damian Sodel wanted to bridge the gap between logistics companies and skilled drivers. They wanted to make sure the transport industry ran smoothly. Starting from a small office with big dreams, they worked tirelessly to establish themselves as a trusted name in the industry.

Highlights of Our Journey

Over the past decade, as a team, we’ve achieved many memorable milestones that have shaped our success:

1. Moving to a New Office. As the business grew, so did the need for a larger space. As a result, in 2018, we proudly moved into our new office in Northampton. Not only did it provide us with more room to expand but also marked a significant step forward in our growth.

2. Expanding the Team What started as a small group has now grown into a family of dedicated professionals. Over the past 10 years, we’ve seen team members come and go, each bringing their own unique skills, ideas, and energy to the table. Every person who has been part of our journey has contributed to shaping who we are today, and for that, we are truly grateful. Whether they were with us for a short time or many years, their hard work, dedication, and passion left a lasting impact. Together, we’ve shared challenges, celebrated successes, and made countless memories along the way.

While people may come and go, our focus remains the same: to provide exceptional service and continue growing as a team. We cherish the journey so far, and we’re excited for what lies ahead. With the amazing team we have now, we can’t wait to see what we will create, achieve, and celebrate in the future.

3. Building our driving force. When we started this journey, we had just one driver. One dedicated person who believed in what we were building. Fast forward ten years, and we’ve grown into a team of skilled, professional drivers who keep the wheels turning every day.

Many of our drivers have been with us for years, forming the backbone of our success. Some have moved on to new adventures, while others have found their way back to us. It’s aproof that we must be doing something right! It’s more than just a job; it’s a team, a community, and for many, a home they’re happy to return to.

Through every mile, every delivery, and every challenge, our drivers have been at the heart of everything we do. Without them, we wouldn’t be celebrating this milestone today.

5. Building strong relationships. From the very beginning, we’ve focused on more than just business—we’ve built relationships. Many of our clients have been with us since day one, becoming more like family than just business partners. Over the past 10 years, we’ve faced our fair share of challenges, but each time, we’ve picked ourselves up, adapted, and kept moving forward. Strong relationships and trust have been the foundation of our success. We’re grateful for every client who has been part of this journey with us. Here’s to many more years of working together!

6. Setting up 22nd January as HGV Drivers Day. To show our appreciation to the HGV drivers, we established 22nd January as HGV Drivers Day. This special day is dedicated to recognising the hard work, dedication, and professionalism of HGV drivers—both in our team and across the industry. Without them, businesses wouldn’t run, shelves wouldn’t be stocked, and the world wouldn’t move as smoothly as it does. It’s our way of saying thank you and celebrating the incredible people who keep the wheels turning every day.

7. Winning Prestigious Awards. Our hard work has earned us five Logistics Temporary Staff Agency of the Year trophies at the Northamptonshire Logistics Awards. These awards reflect the trust our clients and drivers place in us. As we celebrate our 10th anniversary, these achievements highlight the dedication and commitment that have driven our success over the years.

8. Organising a Transport Conference. Since 2020, we’ve hosted three transport conferences, bringing together industry leaders, drivers, and clients. These events gave us a chance to discuss key trends, share knowledge, and strengthen relationships within the logistics community. Moreover, it showed that when we put our minds to it and plan well, we can achieve big things.

9. Spreading Festive Cheer with Our Christmas Act of Kindness. One of our proudest traditions is our annual Christmas Act of Kindness. Whether it’s delivering gifts, supporting local charities, or brightening someone’s day, this initiative has become a cornerstone of our commitment to giving back to the community.

10. Organising HGV Drivers’ Mental Health Advice. Supporting the well-being of our drivers has always been a top priority for us as a recruitment agency. Hence we’ve designed a poster for drivers, offering mental health advice. Also, this initiative stands as one of the highlights of the past 10 years, reflecting our ongoing commitment to caring for the people who make our business thrive.

Looking Ahead

As we celebrate this incredible 10-year anniversary, we are filled with gratitude for everyone who has been a part of our journey. The past 10 years have been nothing short of amazing. We look forward to what the future holds with excitement. Moving forward, we plan to expand our services even further and continue building lasting relationships.

Thank you for being a part of our story. Here’s to the next 10 years of success, growth, and making a difference in the world of logistics!
