Birmingham firm lands contract on 165,000 sq ft distribution centre

Birmingham-based adi Group has secured a major deal with logistics experts Menzies Distribution.

The contract will see the adi Building and Refurbishment business undertake work at Menzies’ 165,000 sq ft distribution centre, in Coventry.

adi Building & Refurbishment managing director David Beebee said: “It’s a pleasure to be working with Menzies on this development.

“Over the past few months, we’ve been working hard to implement a strategy that would allow Menzies to rapidly expand its distribution base as well as continue operations as normal.

“Thanks to the fast growth of our business and the talent base at our disposal, I’m pleased to say that at all times we’ve been able to execute the programme with the upmost efficiency.”

Beebe added: “Following on from the exciting work we’ve been doing with other clients on similar buildings, this contract represents another huge feather in the cap of adi Building & Refurbishment.

“Interior fit-out is a key service stream for us now and particularly in the future. We also have significant experience building, refurbishing and fitting out distribution centres and other similar structures and see this as a key area to grow too.”

“The new distribution hub really formulates part of a wider growth strategy for us,” said Greg Michael, chief executive at Menzies Distribution. “We’ve recently taken on new contracts with Frontline and Seymour Distribution, both of which will see us take their products to over 25,000 retailers.”
