DCS, a distributor of health, beauty, household, and food brands for the likes of P&G, Unilever, Colgate, J&J, and Danone, has announced that its manufacturing operation is moving to Redditch, Worcestershire as part of its growth plans.
The company has invested in a 90,000 sq. ft. purpose-designed facility which is due to be manufacturing at full capacity by the beginning of October this year.
DCS stated that the larger manufacturing site will complement its existing Sales, Distribution and Re-packing services at its HQ in Banbury and will provide the business with additional supply-chain capacity and efficiency in order to support its targeted growth plans.
The group’s CEO Michael Lorimer said: “Finding the right site so we could retain our brilliant team was the top priority. The move to the new facility in Redditch will strengthen our reputation as a leading UK manufacturer and distributor, enabling us to continue to provide excellent service to our branded suppliers and customers and ensure the long-term sustainability of our business.”
He added: “This is a really exciting development for DCS and reflects the confidence we have to grow in the market. Our Manufacturing division was born out of DCS Sales and Distribution over ten years ago and like the rest of the Group it has grown every year. We now employ over one hundred people on the design, manufacturing and distribution of both our Enliven own label brand and other well-known branded personal care products for the UK retail market.”
