Growth drives relocation and job creation plans for recreational leisure supplier

A supplier and distributor to the recreational leisure industry has announced plans to upscale its operations, starting with a relocation to larger premises in Staffordshire.

Established over 40 years ago, Miriad Products is one of the UK’s leading suppliers and distributors to the recreational vehicle and leisure trade.

The company’s product range includes goods from air-conditioning and household to towing, furniture and refrigeration.

The firm’s senior management team has announced plans to capitalise on recent growth, with relocation to substantially larger premises.

A job creation programme which will see at least eight new positions generated across the warehousing, IT and sales departments is also underway.

The new premises in Staffordshire’s Uttoxeter area boasts over 52,000 sq ft of space, over a third bigger than the company’s previous location, and will house over 63 employees.

The increased warehousing, distribution and office space will enable opportunities to expand the current product range and accommodate accelerated growth, which is projected to be at least 25% over the next three years.

Penny Whitelock, managing director, said: “It’s an extremely exciting time for everyone at Miriad Products. We are making considerable investment in our new premises which will include an upgraded IT infrastructure, a new fleet of forklift trucks and a job creation programme which will benefit the business as a whole.

“We’re incredibly pleased to have been supported by Staffordshire and Stoke LEP as part of our strategy to sustain rapid growth. Our new premises will enable us to maximise our existing service and sales propositions, as well as focus on longer term business development plans.”
