600,000 sq ft distribution centre to serve 70 branches.
The 600,000 sq ft facility was adapted from an original Morrison's depot to become Waitrose's fourth regional distribution centre in UK. The depot was upgraded to allow up to 70 branches to be serviced: a requirement due to Waitrose's rapidly growing portfolio of shops in North of England and Scotland.
Design work included upgrade of chilled / refrigeration systems, fire alarms, security, heating and ventilation. The new design included electrical distribution and data.
