Carlsberg Marston’s Brewing Company Goes In-House
Press Release
Knight Frank has announced it has acted for Carlsberg Marston’s Brewing Company (CMBC) who have acquired the lease on circa 40,000sq ft warehouse in Runcorn as part of a strategic move to create a national in-house secondary logistics network.
The unit, at Zip56, Preston Brook, close to both the M56 and M6 will link with other new depots in Cardiff and the South East alongside ten existing depots to serve on-trade customers across the UK.
Sam Royle, Partner at Knight Frank, Manchester Commercial, commented: “The company previously operated a dual secondary logistics network with an in-house network previously operated by Marston’s while Carlsberg outsourced its requirements to DHL Tradeteam. They have taken the decision to consolidate this into one in-house network and the Runcorn location was key to this plan. We are pleased to have been able to source a prime site that perfectly suits their needs.
“This new network of depots will create around 200 jobs across multiple locations and CMBC is also investing in a fleet of 100 new energy efficient HGV vehicles and vans.”
Unit 1 at Zip 56 will provide 37,092 sq ft / 3,445sq m of refurbished warehouse space, expansive yard areas and ground and first floor offices.
Will Kenyon at B8 Real Estate acted on behalf of the landlord Logicor.
