Imperial expands warehouse in Werne
Just months after opening its latest multi-user warehouse, located in Werne, Germany, rapidly-growing business has led Imperial to expand the facility’s capacity by 30%, with the leasing of a further adjacent unit. The additional space brings the total under-cover storage area to almost 30,000 sqm.
The extra warehousing will be part-racked for pallets, while some of the new floor space will be left open for handling and storing of outsize goods. The facility now has a total of 25 truck doors, together with a large yard and parking area of 7,000 sqm, which is ideal for manoeuvring large items.
The complex also features container loading and unloading facilities, and incorporates a paperless order picking system. With the expansion of the facility Imperial responds to organic business growth within the facility’s two launch customers, but some 50% of the additional capacity created will be reserved for anticipated new clients.
