The highly efficient temperature-controlled facility has been built with the cold chain in mind; with a huge capacity of 101,000 pallet positions and multiple floors dedicated to contract packing.
Chief Operating Officer, Amanda Cogan, commented:
“We recognise the critical role that our automated temperature-controlled facility will play in supporting food production in Lincolnshire, minimising food waste and ensuring product safety. Easton has been designed with the cold chain in mind. With the integration of cold chain solutions, such as contract packing, the facility will allow partners to cut out unnecessary steps in their cold chain, reducing transport costs and reducing carbon emissions.”
Developed by some of the best names in the industry, the temperature-controlled facility has been designed to prevent disruptions during peak operational periods like the Christmas season, with multiple pallet ingress and egress points to avoid bottlenecks as well as built-in redundancy planning with no single point of failure.
