Glencar hands over latest industrial and logistics development for long running customer Stoford.

Glencar has completed construction of a new 62,413 sq. ft industrial and logistics unit for long running customer and leading commercial property developer, Stoford, at its well established and successful Worcester Six business park development situated at Junction 6 of the M5, near Worcester.

The development, which took 28 weeks to build, was developed for national food service company Bidfood, which supplies more than 10,000 products to over 45,000 caterers and food service businesses across the UK. This facility will be Bidfood’s first in the region and marks the company’s 28th depot in its national network. It features a cold store and bespoke elements tailored to meet Bidfood’s specific requirements.

Speaking about the project Pete Goodman Glencar Managing Director Midlands and North said: “As the latest project in a long line of recent industrial and logistics developments delivered for our long-standing customer Stoford we are delighted to be working together again. We are delighted with the outcome delivered on time and on budget.

Worcester Six is one of the Midlands premier strategic sites for logistics with exceptional transport links.  As such we are very happy to add this project into our portfolio of successfully completed I&L projects serving as another high quality project reference and customer case study.  At the same time we are very happy to support the regional expansion of the Bidfood network.

Once again I would like to thank and commend the exceptional efforts of our project and professional team. We look forward to the opportunity to work with Stoford again very soon.”

Also commenting Edward Peel, Director at Stoford said: “It’s great to see the latest wave of development at Worcester Six which reflects continued growth for the scheme. We’ve worked collaboratively with Bidfood to design a bespoke space that meets their needs, so it’s really positive to see the building now actually emerge. Glencar have done an exceptional job and we look forward to welcoming Bidfood to the site and becoming operational.”

Claire Cox, Head of Property at Bidfood said: “Bidfood are excited to be expanding into the area and we look forward to our new facility being operational.”

Ian Edwards, Director of Economy and Environment at Wychavon District Council also said: “Bidfood’s investment is a massive sign of confidence in Wychavon as a place to do business and they will be a welcome addition to the many other leading national, and multinational, companies, trading from Worcester Six.”

Worcester Six has welcomed Alliance Flooring Distribution, IONOS, ZwickRoell, Sierra Engineering, Siemens, Spire Healthcare, Kimal, Super Smart Service, Stop Start Logistics and Kohler Mira. More recently, Stoford commenced phase two infrastructure works which will facilitate the development of the southern extension of the site, unlocking more than 60 acres of land.
