A ground-breaking ceremony took place earlier this month to celebrate works officially starting, with representatives from ATL and key project funders from HSBC and Empire Finance in attendance.
The 127,000 sq. ft warehouse will include 14 new loading bays, offices, welfare rooms and external concrete yards and roads. Due for completion early 2024, the facility will enable ATL to meet the increased demand and grow its client base further.

The development is the second warehouse scheme that G F Tomlinson has constructed for ATL, having previously completed a 190,000 sq. ft warehouse at the Midlands Hub. The first phase of the development included a three-storey gatehouse, high-spec offices, a new workshop, and outside storage as well as parking facilities and an extensive, high-bay warehouse.
Following the completion, the company almost doubled its Midlands operating capacity.
Andy Sewards, Chairman and Managing Director of G F Tomlinson, said: "We're delighted to be working with ATL again, to provide a new state-of-the-art distribution warehouse which will support the company’s extensive growth plans.
"Through our long-standing relationship, we have seen ATL’s success and to be a part of the next stage of its journey is fantastic. We look forward to work progressing over the next few months."
