Angling Direct European distribution centre now fully operational
Fishing tackle retailer Angling Direct has announced that its new European distribution centre is now fully operational.
The company said the 3,940 square metre facility in Venlo in the south Netherlands will provide significant logistical capacity to support future growth and will help mitigate Brexit related increased export costs and extended customer fulfilment times. The centre will stock over 18,000 SKUs from more than 80 suppliers and will enable the company to offer priority delivery across the EU.
Andy Torrance, chief executive of Angling Direct, said: “We see a significant opportunity to continue to grow our market share and European expansion remains a key pillar in the company’s growth strategy. As a result, this new facility will help us accelerate delivery of our strategic plans in a more cost and time efficient manner. I would like to thank the team for their hard work over recent weeks to ensure a smooth and successful launch.”
