EDS Couriers opens new depot in Stoke-on-Trent
EDS Couriers, part of the APC Overnight network, has opened a new operational depot in Stoke-on-Trent.
The new Stoke location has 12,000 sq. ft. of warehouse space; four times the firm’s current 3,000 sq. ft. premises in Newcastle-Under-Lyme. It also contains a separate trailer loading and unloading area, increasing simultaneous indoor van loading capability from two to ten vans.
The company was founded by Leonard Evans more than 50 years ago and is now run by his son, Andy, who will soon hand over the reins to his son, Matt.
Matt Evans, Managing Director Designate of EDS Couriers, said: “Our new premises will allow us to further deliver on our promise to provide our customers with world class customer service, increasing our efficiency and coverage.
“We have had an ambitious programme for growth in place over recent years, with more opportunities on the horizon. While the business moves from strength to strength, we will stay true to the family values that are at the heart of EDS Couriers.”
