Transmec UK moves to London Gateway

[ June 26, 2023   //   ]

Transmec Group has opened a cross-dock warehouse at London Gateway Logistics Park.

Providing a new home for its London branch, the 165,000sq ft (15,329 sq m) hub has racking for almost 30,000 pallets and is 50% than its previous base at West Thurrock.

Relocation to DP World’s London Gateway will support the operator’s growth plans, said UK general manager, Imran Mohammed (pictured, right, with London branch manager, Duncan Grainger). “The move will enable us to grow by building on our existing strengths. We intend to make the most of the new warehouse’s excellent facilities while also taking full advantage of London Gateway’s superb road, sea and rail connections.

“To support the international rail terminal and deep-sea port we’ll be providing complementary services from customs clearance to container shunting and devanning.”

The warehouse is an approved ETSF (External Temporary Storage Facility), while in-house customs clearance expertise includes IPAFFS compliance for food imports for which temperature-controlled storage is available.

Transmec’s also offers final distribution with its own fleet of vehicles.
