DX Group opens flagship distribution centre in Kettering

DX has opened a flagship distribution centre in Kettering, Northamptonshire.

The new facility is part of the company’s ongoing investment programme to further scale and develop the business. The site significantly increases the business’s capacity in the East Midlands and will support DX’s Fulfilment, Freight and Final Mile operations.

The new facility is strategically located on a seven acre site in Kettering Venture Park, south east of Kettering. It comprises a 86,000 square foot facility, with 79,000 square feet of warehousing, including seven dock level doors and six level access doors, and office space. The unit is well positioned, midway between the M1 and A1(M) motorways, providing excellent access across the region and supporting national distribution.

DX Fulfilment provides warehousing, contract logistics and value added services for a large number of customers nationwide, facilitating the storage, preparation and dispatch of goods as part of fully managed supply chain operations. Outbound distribution is seamlessly coordinated through DX Freight and DX Final Mile services, enabling all types of consignments, of varying size, weight and format, to move efficiently through the DX network for delivery to both residential and commercial premises. These three services together create a highly efficient integrated logistics hub, giving DX the flexibility to configure its operations to meet the individual needs of its customers.

Ian Truesdale, chief executive officer, said: ‘We have made a confident start to 2026 with the acquisition of HBC Logistics and the launch of a strategic partnership with Rhenus Logistics, which is now well under way. The opening of this new distribution centre in Kettering continues that momentum and reflects the pace at which we are expanding and investing our operational footprint.

‘The site brings together our fulfilment, freight and final mile services, enabling us to support more customers with a highly efficient integrated logistics solution.

‘As DX continues to evolve, investments like this ensure we have the appropriate infrastructure and operational expertise in place to support our customers and the next stage of business growth.’
