Stapleton's New Erdington Site is a 'Super Hub': T&A gets a first look at wholesaler's state-of-the-art warehouse

摘要

Stapleton's Tyre Services latest and greatest 100,000 square foot warehouse has been developed to be the leading tyre wholesaler's UK "super hub." Positioned near the literal midpoint of England, the new depot is central to the company's existing warehouses. Previously the largest of these were developed to be Northern and Southern hubs, but now they will be fed by the large Birmingham location, which is coincidently located a stone's throw away from Goodyear Dunlop's Tyre Fort in the Erdington area, Birmingham. Tyres & Accessories recently met Ashley Croft, head of Stapleton's supply chain, for an exclusive first look at the new facility. The first thing you notice after you arrive inside the Erdington, Birmingham location - which is impossible to miss owing to the largest Stapleton's signage in the company fixed to the road facing wall outside - is that the new super hub is already stocked with a full-range of about 3500 stock keeping units (SKUs).
