What you become part of:

Sidcup Distribution Centre is a 24/7 operation, our Automated Storage and Retrieval System (ASRS) warehouse holds 25,000 pallets and we are the only site to manage the Freestyle range in the GB Network. Every 24 hours we expect to receive around 3,000+ pallets from the on-site manufacturing operation, directly into the ASRS, as well as handling 200+ vehicle movements. Inbound vehicles arrive from our other factory sites, with palletised goods. We assemble orders of full pallets for dispatch to our customers and other sites across our network. Most customers order bulk pallets, which are assembled from the ASRS and rear-loaded onto third party haulage vehicles, other customers require small amounts which we also carry out in a sizeable case-picking operation within the adjacent conventional warehouse which can pick up to 25,000 cases in a 24 hour period.
