DBC Foodservice introduces distribution centre in Walsall

Darlaston now benefits from the facilities of a modern distribution centre including: cold store with a chilled loading bay allowing for storage of frozen goods; a chilled area providing facilities for both storage and cross-dock operations; and vehicle yard space giving Darlaston an overall footprint in excess of 200,000 sq ft. Chris Horne, managing director of DBC Foodservice, said: "With our Darlaston branch now fully operational, this will improve the foodservice offering for the local area whilst also enhancing our national infrastructure, through which we are able to source an extensive range of quality products to any location in the country. "The Darlaston branch provides storage for DBC's 1,400-plus frozen product range, which has grown significantly in the last few months." Darlaston branch manager Rob Grigg added: "The DBC Darlaston branch is a highly efficient facility that enables us to supply businesses across the Midlands, both large and small, even more effectively than before. Being so close to the motorway network means we can deliver our products to Midlands customers in record time as well as servicing our nationwide customer base."
