3PL opens London cross-dock facility
Transmec Group has opened a cross-dock warehouse at the London Gateway Logistics Park.
REPLACING ITS existing London branch, the 165,000 sq ft hub has racking for almost 30,000 pallets and is 50% larger than the branch’s previous base at West Thurrock.
“The move will enable us to grow by building on our existing strengths,” said Imran Mohammed, Transmec’s UK general manager.
“We intend to make the most of the new warehouse’s excellent facilities while also taking full advantage of London Gateway’s superb road, sea and rail connections.
“To support the international rail terminal and deep-sea port we’ll be providing services from customs clearance to container shunting and devanning.”
The warehouse is an approved ETSF (External Temporary Storage Facility), and in-house customs clearance expertise includes IPAFFS compliance for food imports for which temperature-controlled storage is available.
Distribution using Transmec’s own fleet of vehicles ranges from last-mile services to central London to domestic and EU-wide collection and delivery.
