Expanded distribution centre

Following a period of continued growth, KBB distributor PJH has announced investment in an enlarged Thirsk Distribution Centre, more than doubling the capacity of the site it replaces to over 10,000ft2. Investment in the new regional distribution centre, with its improved logistics, capacity and stock holding, also lowers PJH’s carbon footprint through a more regionally deployed fleet and reduced delivery miles.

“It’s another significant investment for PJH and supports further the growth in our national logistics infrastructure that provides next day deliveries for our customers,” says Richard George, CEO of PJH. “It increases our total number of Distribution Centres to seven and our overall warehouse footprint to 355,000ft2. ”
