(Alliance News) - DX Group PLC on Monday said that it has opened a new depot in Norwich, increasing its capacity in the region and continuing its programme to expand and develop its depot network.
DX is a Slough, England-based provider of delivery solutions, including parcel freight, secure courier and logistics services.
The new depot is in Caley Close, north-west of the Norwich city centre, comprising a 23,913 square foot facility. It is the latest addition to the group's Parcels network, part of its DX Express division.
DX Group added that the site would help to improve operational facilities and enhance customer service levels.
The new site has enabled the existing depot in east Norwich, on the Broadlands Business Park, to become a dedicated depot for the DX Freight division, which specialises in the delivery of irregular dimension and weight items and provides 2-Man and logistics services.
A raised dock will be installed to support the freight operations from this site and to improve efficiency.
"The current financial year is a major year of investment. This latest depot opening in Norwich significantly increases our capability in the area for both our Parcels and Freight operations. It also delivers further efficiencies, environmental and customer service benefits," said Chief Executive Officer Paul Ibbetson.
"Enlarging and improving the depot network underpins the continued successful delivery of our growth plans over the short to medium term, and we look forward to reporting on further openings over the coming months."
DX Group shares were trading 0.6% lower at 34.80 pence each in London on Monday morning.
