E-commerce fulfilment firm snaps up new HQ

A Nottinghamshire e-commerce fulfilment firm has expanded after buying a 5,600 sq ft unit in Bingham.

Crocodile Stores has moved to 35 Moorbridge Road in a deal brokered by Anthony Barrowcliffe of FHP Property Consultants.

Matt Kirby of Crocodile Stores said: “We were thrilled with how well Anthony at FHP worked with everyone involved to ensure a really quick purchase took place. Crocodile Stores offer e-commerce fulfilment services and Christmas is a key time of year so time was of the essence in getting the deal done in order to be ready for our peak season. Securing the additional space has allowed our business to service significant growth for our clients with order volumes doubling compared to Quarter 4 in 2020.”

Barrowcliffe said: “I realised quickly when I met Matt Kirby that he had a rapidly growing business working in the e-commerce sector which has seen huge growth, especially due to Covid-19. He was already operating three warehouses from Cotgrave so 35 Moorbridge Road worked brilliantly for this already established business due to it being located a short simple drive away on the A46.

“The warehouse consisted of simple storage space with only a small office to the front which suited Crocodile Stores operation perfectly. I hope to work with Matt Kirby again as I know he has already almost filled 35 Moorbridge Road and is still winning more and more business due to his brilliant operation and reputation.”
