Evri has opened a £1.3 million parcel depot at Indurent Park in Quedgeley, near the M5 in Gloucestershire, creating 38 permanent jobs. The facility is designed to handle around 8,000 parcels each night, increasing to approximately 13,000 during peak periods. It replaces the Tewkesbury depot and spans over 57,000 square feet, offering greater operational capacity than the previous facility which had reached its limit.
The depot opening is part of Evri Group's expansion following its acquisition of DHL eCommerce UK. Gary Chalk, director of depots at Evri Premium, said: 'The opening of our new Gloucester depot represents a significant investment in our network and demonstrates our commitment to supporting customers, clients and the communities we serve.' He highlighted that the new facility provides additional capacity, resilience and flexibility across the Southwest.
Chalk added that the investment aims to help the company meet the region's growing demand for parcel delivery. 'As parcel volumes continue to grow, investments like this are helping us build a stronger, more efficient and future-ready network,' he said.
