Pricecheck Brand Partners has announced a significant expansion of its logistics capabilities, with a new 20,000 sq.ft. warehouse in Sheffield opening.
The new facility in Beighton sits directly across from the wholesaler and brand distributor’s headquarters at Old Colliery Way. The move is in response to the company’s rapid growth, which has led to a need for additional capacity to meet surging demand.
Pricecheck is also hiring half a dozen staff to work at the new warehouse, with plans to grow this number in the future.
This expansion will be bolstered by the addition of a 13,000 sq.ft. temporary structure at the company’s Rotherham site, expected to be operational in April. Together, these developments, alongside its three warehouses in Sheffield and Rotherham, will bring its total operational footprint to over 400,000 sq.ft. across its South Yorkshire sites.
To further manage this upscaling, Pricecheck’s Rotherham warehouse is now open on weekends, ensuring operations keep pace with the increasing volume of trade.
The investment comes at a ‘pivotal’ moment for the business. The extra space will support the final push toward the company’s Vision 200 goal, a five-year strategic plan to double the size of the business and reach a £200m turnover by the end of the 2025/26 financial year.
Mark Amos, operations director, said: “Our rapid growth has been incredibly exciting, but it’s also brought challenges. This new warehouse, as well as our Rotherham site being open seven days a week, are vital steps in ensuring we have the infrastructure and capacity to meet the huge demand from our partners and retailers.
