RA is pleased to announce the opening of its new storage and distribution centre in Daventry. The 15,000 ft2 facility will become a material and logistics hub, serving its existing and future production sites. The new site will allow significantly increased capacity within the exhaust assembly plant at March House creating a further 30 full time skilled jobs in 2017/2018.
“This is another big step forward for RA and allows us to support the continued growth of the business. We have seen a significant increase in demand over the past year, and with many new products nearing start of production, we needed to increase storage and production capacity. The new facility provides 500 additional pallet spaces 7,000ft2 of floor space and allows us to double production capacity at the March House exhaust assembly plant within the next 3 months. It’s important for the longer term too. RA is investing heavily in new vehicle system and material technologies for hybrid and electric vehicles. The distribution hub will provide initial storage capacity in support of additional production facilities that will be required in the next 2-5 years.”
