Marathon Warehouse Distribution is delighted to announce the opening of a new Regional Distribution Centre based in Caerphilly, South Wales.

This strategic expansion offers improved service to factor customers in this important region of the UK and will deliver a frequent same-day service to customers across South Wales and Bristol.

The Caerphilly site becomes the 10th distribution centre in Marathon’s expanding national network, which already includes locations in North and South London, Reading, Southampton, Colchester, Loughborough, Warrington, Castleford, and Redditch.

A further property is also already in place and Marathon is looking to open this later in the year, once again improving existing same-day service levels in that area of the country.

The expanding network will allow the business to achieve its goal in offering frequent same day service to factors throughout the day, at the same time improving delivery speed based on closer proximity to all key areas served.

Marathon has also announced that at the same time as the Caerphilly warehouse opening it will be improving its same-day delivery frequency to customers served by three of its other regional distribution centres, enhancing service levels to areas positively impacting over 300 existing customers.

“The opening of Caerphilly marks another big step forward in our commitment to responsive, frequent same-day service to factors across the UK,” said Colin Fisher, Marathon’s Director of Sales & Marketing. “It’s about speed, yes, but also consistency and overall support to our customers.

“The new centre will enable us to strengthen the service and support we offer to our expanding factor customer base and the launch will also see some new products launched at all of our centres at the same time adding more choice & availability to our already wide range of brands.”

These developments reflect Marathon’s ongoing commitment & investment in their infrastructure, so that they are able to deliver the best possible factor customer experience, service and overall support in an ever changing market.
