15 new Shropshire jobs are on their way at one of North Shropshire’s best-known companies, GroContinental, as it works to complete a 75,000 sq ft warehouse on its site.
Whitchurch-based storage and distribution firm Grocontinental is set to create 15 Shropshire jobs at its new warehouse, which will also be the largest the company has built to date.
The site will have space for 32,000 pallets, taking the company’s total storage capacity to 197,000 pallets.
It is anticipated that the new warehouse will be used to house existing customers’ dairy products, mainly cheese. The warehouse is due to be completed in October, and will include high-density racking, dedicated cheese grading and visitor facilities.
Job opportunities will include roles for warehouse operatives, administrators, cheese grading/sampling assistants and stock controllers.
Grocontinental has also launched a recruitment campaign for casual and full-time drivers on a range of flexible shift patterns.
Family-run Grocontinental has continued to invest heavily in the construction of new facilities and the purchase of the vehicles to secure its ongoing growth.
Managing director David Grocott said: “We have experienced an increased level of demand for space and enquiries are ahead of what we’ve seen in previous years.
“Although we are in a challenging and competitive market, our investment programme in quality facilities and equipment have ensured we remain ahead of the game.
