Aramex expands in the UK with Heathrow move

Logistics firm Aramex UK has moved its operations into a new warehouse facility at London Heathrow as it looks to cater for growth.

The new 80,000 sq ft is located at Poyle; a long established industrial and logistics centre minutes from Heathrow airport.

The company said the facility will ensure Aramex UK will “support an ever-growing customer base of leading brands”.

Umar Butt, country manager for Aramex UK, said: “Located at the heart of London Heathrow Airport, the facility is equipped with innovative state-of-the-art technologies for higher capacity, faster sortation process and reduced transit times.

“We believe this will allow us to fulfil growing customer demands for more rapid, efficient deliveries and manage a completely seamless and reliable fulfilment service. This will also support us in catering to the growth in e-Commerce and freight volumes helping us grow our presence in different verticals.”

The new facility includes a three-story office accommodation, which will give the Company the flexibility to not only use the site as storage and distribution depot; but also, be home to its headquarters facility in the South East.
