Our History

Northern Universal Languages was founded in 2007 by Aqueel Ahmed and Mark Dennison who started the company from Greenesfield Business centre; the company was started as a local translation company based in North East England and had a small database of 250 translators to service local demand.

The demand from local companies trading globally helped launch Northern Universal Languages into the international market. As the numbers began to increase it was clear that work needed to be done to establish a network of translators specialising in one main area of expertise around the globe to ensure translation orders 24 hrs a day. An operations team was put in place, thus allowing the company to focus on helping drive the standards of its service to a new level.

A huge part of the company's success is down to the 5,000+ highly specialised and qualified translators we have based around the world, these translators have expertise in there specialised field of translation such as degrees and working experiences which allows them to better understand the jargon/technical terms that each industry has. This frees the operations team to work around the clock to meet cliental requirements

 

The growth of Northern Universal Languages, in terms of international customer base has exploded over the last year and we hope to expand our international client base even further. The company now has clients in over 50 countries, providing translations in at least 100 different languages - and all of it...in a professional manner!

 

The aim is to ensure that Northern Universal Languages is best situated to providing accurate, high-quality language translations and to meet the requirements of our clients regardless of there location, time zone or language.
