Staff at food retailer Greggs paid a visit to its new national distribution centre (NDC) in Kettering to see how the development is taking shape ahead of its completion in September.
Located at Symmetry Park Kettering near junction 9 of the A14, the new 311,551 sq ft facility has been designed to achieve a minimum of BREEAM ‘Very Good’ standard, an EPC A rating and meet net zero carbon in construction requirements.
Greggs supply chain director Kuldip Bains said: “We’re incredibly excited to bring our people on site for the first time and see our new distribution centre start to take shape.
“Only by investing in our people and in our assets will we achieve our growth ambitions of increasing our number of shops from 2,600 to in excess of 3,500 and increase our ability to directly supply ambient and chilled products to our customers.”
The NDC should be fully operational in 2027.
