Background
Manchester-based warehousing and logistics provider, Interspan Freight, moved to a state-of-the-art head office and warehouse at Trafford Park in 2007. After investing in a 40,000 sq. ft site with capacity for around 3,000 pallets, the ambitious 3PL was on track to further expand its customer base. While the business had traditionally concentrated on pallet-based storage and movements, it was determined to attract more online retailers with its pick, pack and shipping services.
