£2 million depot for Aberdeen-based 3PL
Transport and distribution company Northwards has invested in a 20,000 sq ft transportation depot at Altens Industrial Estate on Blackness Road with the help of a £1.2 million funding package from Royal Bank of Scotland, pushing total investment to £2 million.
The new facility is located and will supplement the existing unit at Aberdeen Harbour. It is a significant investment for Northwards and is part of its expansion strategy: “The acquisition of a new transportation depot is an important step in our expansion and we’re grateful to Royal Bank of Scotland for supporting our investment. The new facility will enable us to continue to enhance and grow the portfolio of services available to our customers while creating new jobs for the surrounding areas,” said Northwards managing director Michael Porter.
