With a vast selection of FMCG clients and 'Big Brand' portfolio to satisfy, our vision and strategy plan required a swift investment into E-Commerce and fulfillment. The perfect facility is vital to cater for such operations and so the plans to open a new state-of-the-art logistics complex were formed, 4 years ahead of schedule. The new location provides the environment for our continued success.

Benefits
Managing a logistics centre is seldom easy. It's really easy to burn management time [and therefore money] on reactive Human Resource activity, such as hiring temporary staff cover, discipliniary or grievance matters, organising staff training, meetings and payroll. Add to that the time spent on organising security and rememdial works, dilapidations and warehouse working protocols.

LOCATION
Wellingborough's easy access to major road networks such as the M1, M6 and M42, provides access to 80% of the UK’s population within a 4 hour drive. With 5 international airports located within 2 hours drive, 3 of these being major air freight terminals, connecting cargo by airfreight is easy.
The UK's major ports including Southampton, Felixstowe and Dover all within 3 hours drive and two major rail freight terminals are located close-by in Daventry and Corby.
The majority of our customers have international transport requirements, whether procuring product from Overseas or delivering to continental customers and therefore good access to ports and airports is essential.
In the latter part of 2018 it became evident that our continued success would result in our current facility being unable to cater for the demand of our business. By the beginning of 2019 we signed off on our new facility, in Wellingborough, Northamptonshire.
Whilst suffering from delays related to the COVID-19 lockdown and some appalling weather, we moved in during June 2020 and began operations little more than a month later.
Park developer Prologis recently opened a new outdoor fitness ‘trim trail’ at the park for the benefit of park employees and the local community. The trail features a jogging track and a variety of outdoor fitness equipment, including a stationary bike, monkey bars and equipment for use by those in wheelchairs The verges along the trail have also been seeded with wildflowers, in order to provide a beautiful display of natural colour in Spring of 2021.
SUSTAINABILITY
Passive design measures reduce operational carbon emissions and the need for energy. These include high levels of airtightness and insulation to reduce potential heat loss. Insulation and cladding specifications are well in excess of Building Regulations, while pressure tests show that air-tightness levels up to 80% better than the statutory requirement can be achieved.
Rooflights on 15% of the warehouse roof area maximise the use of daylight, while optimal orientation takes into account the path of the sun and the prevailing winds. Offices have dual aspect glazing to take advantage of natural daylight and allow for effective passive ventilation. Solar shading also ensures thermal comfort and avoids solar gain. Intelligent lighting with low-energy fluorescent fittings, daylight linking and presence-detecting controls minimise energy consumption. High-efficiency, low-NOX boilers with thermostatically controlled radiators that heat the offices and different parts of the building are sub-metered to help us track and manage energy consumption.
