New depot opening in Southampton

 

DX, a leading provider of delivery solutions, including parcel freight, secure
courier, 2-person and logistics services, is pleased to announce the opening
of a new depot in Southampton. The opening significantly increases the Group's
capacity in the region and continues DX's programme to expand and develop its
depot network.

The new site, which is located in Chandler's Ford, Eastleigh, comprises a
25,000 sq ft facility and replaces a smaller depot in Totton. It is the latest
addition to the Group's Parcels network, part of the DX Express division,
which provides highly secure, tracked deliveries to both business and consumer
addresses. The new depot will improve operational efficiencies, reduce carbon
emissions and enhance customer service levels, a key focus for the Group.

 

Paul Ibbetson, Chief Executive Officer of DX Group, commented:

 

"We are pleased to open this new DX Express depot in Southampton as part of
our continued investment in the business. The new depot will enhance our
position in Hampshire, increasing the capacity and capability of our Parcels
operation. It will deliver further efficiencies to our operations and provide
enhanced local customer service benefits, a priority for the Group.

 

"Enlarging and improving the depot network underpins the continued successful
delivery of our growth plans over the short to medium term, and we look
forward to reporting on further openings over the forthcoming months."
