Marshall Fleet Solutions has further expanded its UK operations by opening a brand new state-of-the-art flagship depot in Tamworth, the West Midlands.
The multi-million-pound facility, totalling 26,000m², was declared officially open for business with a ribbon cutting ceremony on Thursday 11 August, at Tamworth’s Birch Coppice Business Park, strategically located in the heart of the Midlands transport and logistics industry hub.
Attending the official opening were VIP business representatives from the temperature-controlled, tail lift, and fleet management sectors, together with the Mayor of North Warwickshire, Councillor Tony Clews, and Marshall Group’s Chief Executive Officer, Kathy Jenkins.
As part of Marshall’s continued long-term investment strategy in Marshall Fleet Solutions, the cutting-edge supersite benefits from purpose-built design and operational facilities to meet the specific 24/7/365 requirements of the company’s national growth plans for both Thermo King Transport Refrigeration and Tail Lift services.
The new facility includes an expansive multi-bay workshop which can hold up to nine HGV vehicles at one time, a National Parts & Accessories Centre (NPAC), an executive office suite, and a dedicated Centre of Excellence which builds upon the company’s existing industry-leading transport refrigeration training school.
Unique within the UK’s temperature-controlled sector, the new Centre of Excellence will provide in-house training requirements covering every product and service discipline offered by Marshall Fleet Solutions, including transport refrigeration, tail lift and fleet management. The company will also be offering external training opportunities going forward.
