Records record for DP World
[ April 7, 2025 // Chris Lewis ]DP World has shipped over 10 million vinyl records from its Bicester facility, the UK’s largest distribution warehouse for music and video products, since opening in August 2023.
Powered by semi-autonomous ‘picking’ robots, the warehouse has become the epicentre of physical music distribution, playing a key role in the ongoing ‘vinyl revival’. The 270,000sq ft facility handles over70% of all physical music and 35% of home entertainment products sold in the UK. It supplies some of the world’s largest retailers, including Amazon and HMV, as well as more than 400 independent record stores.
The facility has also seen significant growth in e-commerce sales, distributing approximately 2 million units direct to customers in 2024.
