Agilitas cuts ribbon on new logistics hub to support international expansion

Services firm quadruples pallet size to service business in 60 countries

Channel services provider Agilitas has launched its a logistics hub in Nottingham to support its ongoing global expansion.

The renovated unit has seen its total pallet capacity quadruple and shelf space increase by 80 per cent, to help support Agilitas' operations in 60 countries.

Shaun Lynn, CEO at Agilitas, said: "We are always looking to improve our services as the industry develops, and our logistics hub transformation is just one of the ways we are transforming our business to remain relevant for customers, and continue to provide world-class channel services solutions.

"This transformation has allowed us to create quicker response times and enhanced service levels to add even more value to our channel partners, in turn creating benefits for their business too."

The renovation took Agilitas three months to complete, with temporary warehouse space sought to avoid disrupting on-going operations.

The new unit sees the introduction of semi-automated picking, which Agilitas says can reduce pick times by 30 per cent.

Agiltas has also boosted its workforce in the centre by over 20 per cent.
