Middleton, Manchester, UK: Manchester-based Romac Logistics is expanding with a new head office and distribution centre.
The company, which handles chilled and ambient distribution, is moving to a site off junction 20 of the M62. The move adds 8,000sq metres of temperature-controlled warehousing to the company’s portfolio.
Rob McAdoo from Romac Logistics said: “At this stage in our growth it was important to evolve our service offering whilst taking stock of our infrastructure. In consolidating two of our smaller operations and merging the head office into the distribution centre at Stakehill Industrial Estate we will deliver an abundance of efficiencies that will ultimately benefit our customers.”
Property consultancy Gent Visick advised Romac Logistics and negotiated the leasehold acquisition.
Daniel Walker, from Gent Visick, said: “Stakehill Industrial Estate will make a fantastic HQ for Romac Logistics in a prime location. The site will see continued growth of the business through a cold store facility and oversized service yard, so it ticks every box for Romac Logistics.”
Romac Logistics was founded in Manchester in early 2018 and has rapidly expanded. The company operates more than 200 tractor units and around 350 trailers. with bases in Leeds, Bolton, Doncaster, Avonmouth, County Durham, Wednesbury, Southampton, Northfleet, Bridgend and Peterborough.
