JRP Distribution invests in warehouse modernisation

Automotive distribution company, JRP Distribution, has been spending the start of 2025 revamping and modernising its systems.

With a warehouse spanning 60,000 sq ft and stocking over 4,000 products, JRP Distribution has invested in its warehouse structure to keep up with growing demand. The modernisation includes expanding capacity with new racking, which provides 15% more space for product storage. The company has also installed a robotic pallet wrapper to assist staff and increase the speed of the packaging process.

Further investments include additional warehouse trucks to maximise the speed of internal operations, alongside a continued increase in staff numbers to ensure quick order fulfilment.

Ollie Page, JRP’s Managing Director, commented: “We’ve been running as a business for nearly 45 years now and during that time we have had to adapt our systems and processes to suit needs and demands, so this is just the latest update to our business to ensure it continues to run smoothly.”

Page explained the reasoning behind the changes: “We recognise that we have an incredibly large product offering and with more continually being added to ranges, we need to be sure that we have a warehouse facility set up to store these, leading to us building more racking and storage to maximise the volumetrics, without disrupting the flow and efficiency of the warehouse.” He concluded: “We know our customers desire a quick delivery, so all our investments have been to improve efficiency and create a speedier process.”

JRP Distribution, based in Chichester, supplies products to various markets, focusing on the automotive sector with brands including Autobar, Ecomotive, and J-B Weld.
