Imperial Engineering new premises
Leading distributor of bus and coach parts, Imperial Engineering, has seen in 2023 with the opening of its brand new facility in Harlow, Essex, having relocated from its previous site in Cheshunt, where it had been for over half a century.
Affording Imperial Engineering more than 15,000 square feet of warehousing and office space on an expanding industrial area, the new site represents a significant investment in the company’s future, with the building having been completely refurbished to its own specification over the past six months.
Commenting on the company’s relocation, John Dwight, Imperial Engineering’s Sales Director, said:
“Having built up the business from our original site in Cheshunt, which is being redeveloped for housing, Imperial secured a building in Harlow last year, which gives us increased stockholding capacity and excellent communication links. Working in partnership with our contractors, we’ve fitted out the building to suit the existing and future needs of our business and our staff have also relocated. The whole team is excited to start a fresh chapter in Imperial’s history.”
Continued Dwight:
“To ensure a smooth transition, Imperial notified all its customers and suppliers prior to the move, which took place between Christmas and New Year, in order to minimise any business disruption. Thanks to everyone’s support, we have already cleared a backlog of orders and the business is having a very busy January.”
