Whistl Fulfilment Moves Into Wellingborough Warehouse

Whistl Fulfilment is moving to new warehouse space in Wellingborough as part of a strategic move to support further growth. 

New Site Supports Existing and Future Fulfilment Growth

Our fulfilment operations are on the move to Wellingborough, having switched premises to a warehouse at Prologis Park.

Whistl Fulfilment is the UK’s largest provider of integrated multi-channel fulfilment and carrier management solutions. This latest move to the Sqrrl Solutions-owned site is to support the growth of an existing customer, a household name in the consumer electronics sector.

It also provides plenty of space for future fulfilment customers.

Best-in-Class Sustainability Credentials

The new site has been constructed to best-in-class sustainability standards. It is rated BREEAM ‘Excellent’, the gold standard in building sustainability, and has an EPC ‘A’ rating. This is the highest possible score for energy efficiency.

As well as being sustainable, the site is spacious. With capacity for 72,500 pallets, it also includes three level access doors, 32 dock doors, four Euro dock doors, and space for 80 HGV lorries.

We’re continually investing in our 3PL capacity. Earlier this year, we opened our £7.5m, 160,000 sq ft multi-level mezzanine structure in Lutterworth. This features automated conveyors, enabling the processing of around 250,000 pick and pack items per week.

As part of this investment, we also announced that we had been selected to provide Tesco F&F Online with fulfilment, delivery and returns management services to enable the division’s return to the online retail arena after a seven-year absence.

Whistl Fulfilment currently operates six sites across the UK with 1.5m sq ft of dedicated multi-channel fulfilment space provided for over 50 brands and retailers. The Whistl Group diversified from Mail and Parcels into Fulfilment eight years ago.
