REUSABLE plastic packaging and pooling solutions specialist Tosca has doubled the company’s warehousing capacity in Yorkshire after concluding a new 10-year lease from Onward Holdings.
The deal combines two 30,000 sq ft units on the Green Lane Industrial Park in Featherstone.
Tosca, which has a portfolio including crates, pallets and bulk containers, acquired a warehouse at the location around eight years ago. The firm acted quickly when the unit next door became available as it coincided with the company’s expansion strategy for the region.
According to Onward Holdings, around 80% of the UK’s population is accessible in four hours from the industrial estate, making the site ‘ideal’ for bulk distribution items.
Steve Raybould, Tosca’s operations director UK & Ireland, said, “The signing of a new and extended lease with Onward at the Featherstone site builds on our existing relationship with Onward and makes an important commitment to support our UK business for the long term, with the enlarged footprint giving us additional capacity in this important geographic area.”
Onward director Neil Storey added, “Tosca is a long-standing client and has been operating out of Featherstone for many years. They had first bite of the cherry when next door became available and agreed a new lease on the whole site.”
