Regale invests in facilities to support next working-day delivery promise
This investment which follows ‘significant’ growth, enables the company to maintain its next working day delivery target for orders made by 2pm - a key USP from when the company was founded 40 years ago. The expansion includes acquiring a new building adjacent to the existing HQ, now ‘transformed’ into a dedicated distribution centre with an all-new service facility and office space.
Regale has allocated £30,000 towards equipment enhancements, including a Push-back racking system and a bespoke vacuum lifting machine. These improvements optimise storage capacity and streamline the process of preparing microwaves with Microsave liners. The investment has led to a 80% increase in warehouse capacity, showcasing Regale's commitment to enhancing operational efficiency and customer satisfaction.
Iain Phillips, managing director of Regale Microwaves Ltd, said: "Regales focuses specifically on microwaves and high-speed cooking ovens which means we really know the products we sell.
“This investment has provided us with ample warehouse space to hold every single SKU in stock, enabling faster order fulfilment - we can deliver to the whole of mainland UK on the next working day and do it free of charge.
“By investing in office space and technologies that enhance operational efficiency and alleviate the burden on staff, Regale underscores its commitment to working smarter, not harder, while optimising cost-effectiveness and service quality.”
