West Yorkshire-based Ficep UK Ltd has invested in its offices and stockholding capacity as a direct response to a growing demand from customers who rely on its cutting-edge machinery solutions. The company has created additional secure storage space to hold more stock by adding 44 pallet spaces incorporated into its 17,000ft² warehouse in Castleford. The installation of an additional carousel system (pictured) will double the holding capacity in the Ficep UK warehouse, ensuring that essential components and spare parts are readily available to meet customer requirements promptly.

In addition to the warehouse expansion, Ficep UK has also created a brand-new office space, located within the warehouse, to serve as the operational hub for the company's tooling and consumables service team. The investment in office space reflects Ficep UK's commitment to providing exceptional customer service. With a dedicated team working on tooling and consumables, it aims to ensure clients have easy access to the essential components and consumables needed to maintain and optimise their machinery.

Richard Clark, operations director at Ficep UK, said: “This expansion gives customers further peace of mind that stocks of quality spares, tooling and consumables will be readily available directly from our UK premises. This helps keep down-time, caused by part requirement, to an absolute minimum. We understand the importance of meeting our customers' needs promptly, and our investment in warehouse and office space shows our commitment to doing the best by them.”

As the company continues to grow and adapt to evolving customer needs, it is also expanding its team. It has recently recruited a tooling and consumables sales coordinator to support the administrative team and to further enhance its ability to serve clients efficiently and effectively.
