The Delivery Group opens Bristol hub

The Delivery Group has opening of a new 52,500 sq ft processing hub in Bristol – an £8 million investment by the mail and pallet specialist.

In March it opened a £2 million, 25,000 sq ft, mail processing hub in Aylesford, Kent. The Bristol site adds 30 per cent capacity to its network.

Chief executive Steve Stokes said: “Our aim is to deliver exceptional value and service to clients throughout the UK, and Bristol represents the best strategic fit for our network.

“The Bristol hub complements our existing sites in Warrington, Luton, Kent, Derby and central London, giving us a very strong geographic footprint across the country and enabling us to expertly handle over one billion items.”

The Delivery Group moved into the pallet market in July when it became a shareholder member of Pallet-Track.

In June it acquired one hundred per cent of the share capital of ONEPOST (Postal Choices Ltd), for an undisclosed sum.
