The company, which acquired the £1.2m property in 2013, has spent more than six months customising the 35,000 sq ft facility.
Situated just minutes from Junction 16 of the M4, it is ideally placed to support the company’s existing customers in the Swindon, Reading and Oxford area. It will also serve as a base from which to grow David Hathaway’s presence in the South Central region.
The new warehousing facilities will be managed by Buddy Earp, who joined David Hathaway in 2013. An experienced manager, he is also responsible for overseeing warehousing operations at the company’s Yate headquarters.
Managing director, Matthew Hathaway, said: “Our rapidly expanding customer portfolio meant we needed to increase our warehousing capability. Close to our existing facilities in Yate, the site at Royal Wootton Bassett was a natural choice and it’s already proving to be a valuable asset.
“Over the next two years, we plan to significantly grow our business and we want to be seen as the logistics partner of choice for organisations looking for a high-quality, bespoke service.
“I’m confident our new site will help us achieve this aim and together with Buddy, we’re working hard to ensure we maximise its full potential.”
Previously employed by PPF Packaging where he was general manager, Buddy has also held managerial positions at CPC Packaging and APW Packaging.
Founded in 1976, David Hathaway Transport Limited specialises in pallet distribution, pallet storage, road haulage and warehousing. The company employs more than 100 people across its sites and has a fleet of 64 vehicles.
