Independent hardware supplier, Carl F Groupco, is continuing its investment in UK operations with the addition of a new warehouse facility, delivering more than 250 additional 1m pallet spaces to support growing demand across the business.

Located adjacent to the company’s main Peterborough head office, the new warehouse represents a significant step forward in Carl F Groupco’s operational capability. The facility has been developed to integrate seamlessly with existing operations, increasing storage capacity while enhancing the speed and efficiency of its distribution processes.

The investment forms part of the company’s wider growth strategy.

Owen Coop, CEO at Carl F Groupco, said:

“This latest investment reflects our long-term commitment to our customers. As demand continues to grow, it’s essential that our infrastructure keeps pace. This new warehouse gives us the capacity and flexibility to do exactly that.”

He continued: “By expanding our warehousing directly alongside our existing operation, we are able to increase stockholding, improve efficiencies across logistics and strengthen our ability to deliver a fast, reliable service. This is about making sure we consistently meet customer expectations, every time.”

The additional capacity will allow Carl F Groupco to hold a broader and deeper range of products.

According to Carl F Groupco, this latest development highlights a proactive approach to investment, with continued focus on strengthening infrastructure and service capability. In a tightening market, investment of this nature is always noteworthy, demonstrating both confidence in the sector and a clear commitment to supporting customers with stability, availability and service.

With two warehousing centres in Peterborough, alongside its facility in Cumbernauld, the company operates nationwide, including to the Scottish Highlands and offshore islands.
