Barry Callebaut Vending UK is on the move, trading its St Helens head quarters in the North West for premises on the outskirts of Chester.
The move will give the leading hot beverage supplier approximately quadruple the space that it currently has which should prove useful as it forges ahead with plans to double its business over the next five years.
The company is owned by the world’s leading supplier of high quality chocolate, Barry Callebaut, and is renowned for the quality of its products which it supplies to the UK and wider European markets. The business has gone from strength to strength in recent years and the company is now investing in order to increase its capabilities and expand its market presence.
The new premises will contain a significantly upgraded IT system and will also house new machinery which will allow Barry Callebaut to step up operations and improve packing capabilities of different size products including sachet as well as pillow pack products.
The move, which is set to take place in May, with the new offices officially opening at the start of June, will see the company have an interest in two home countries as the building sits on the English / Welsh border, a short drive from the North Wales coast.
The new headquarters will house a cross-section of staff, including senior management, accounts, administrative staff and factory employees as well as providing a base for members of the sales team. Managing director for Barry Callebaut Vending UK, Peter Holdway, is looking forward to the move: “The company is moving onto a whole new level now and so it is fitting that we boulster this period of growth and expansion with a move to bigger premises.
We are already making significant inroads into the horeca market and we expect to infiltrate a healthy proportion of the High Street in the next 12 months.”
