Award-winning logistics and warehouse specialists Aztek Logistics has sealed the deal on its sixth warehouse to support a period of extended growth.
The new 20,000 sq. ft warehouse is located in Arlesey, next to the Pallet-Track member’s already-established 30,000 sq. ft warehouse and just a stone's throw from its main site in Letchworth Garden City.
This investment brings Aztek’s total warehousing capacity to an impressive 150,000 sq. ft, increasing the overall warehouse space by more than 13 per cent.
Despite the external challenges brought on by Brexit and the Covid-19 pandemic, Aztek recently experienced its busiest-ever month in 20 years of trading. It has also invested in its now 40-strong fleet, purchasing some of the highest-specification vehicles in the industry and hired new employees to help manage the demand.
Stuart Charter, founder and managing director of Aztek Logistics, said: “Acquiring the additional warehouse space is just the next phase of growth for us here at Aztek.
“We’ve been experiencing a steady increase in our customer base over the last 18 months, reaching milestones we never thought possible with everything that was going on in the world. In the coming months we will also be investing in our rigid fleet and new additional trailers.
“With Covid-19 taking up a lot of headspace over the last two years, we are now able to look to the future rather than managing the crisis of the moment and continue with our investment and expansion plans for a bigger and brighter 2022 and beyond. It’s a very exciting time for us here at Aztek.”
