Global logistics company GXO has opened a new warehouse at Hitchcocks Business Park in Devon.
The nearly 2500 ft² storage unit is built on a one acre site and has four docks for loading and unloading cargo. It is made up of three sections: an industrial freezer, an industrial refrigerator, and an ambient temperature area.
Hitchcocks Business Park is a former dairy farm that has been converted into a park with a range of units tailored to logistics and manufacturing businesses. It gained planning permission in 2021 to expand its site. Then, after initial discussions between GXO and the team at the business park in July 2021, a new yard was designed and built to GXO’s specification.
Tim Smith, Head of Property at Hitchcocks Business Park said: “We are delighted to welcome GXO to Hitchcocks Business Park and have worked closely with the GXO team to deliver their new site to the required specification.”
