TP-Link has officially opened its most extensive UK and Ireland National Distribution Centre. The 72,000-square-foot warehouse, double the size of any previous TP-Link facilities, has a 50% increase in storage capacity. This allows faster deliveries, greater stock availability, and improved service for business, retail, and ISP customers. This investment provides TP-Link with the agility to anticipate and meet customers’ demands more effectively.
By streamlining logistics, the new facility reduces goods handling time by 62% and cuts resource usage by 66%, making operations significantly leaner. Customers can expect shorter lead times and enhanced supply reliability, while ISPs benefit from new service opportunities like direct fulfilment and pre-configured product deliveries. These enhancements ensure ready-to-use devices can be shipped directly to their customers’ doorsteps, creating a smoother and more convenient experience.
“At TP-Link, innovation is not just about technology but also about delivering a better customer experience for our partners and customers. This new facility allows us to work faster, stock more and support businesses, retailers and ISPs like never before – helping them stay ahead of constantly changing market demands,” said Nelson Qiao, managing director at TP-Link UK.
The site also features a best-in-class demo room designed to facilitate training and accreditation for TP-Link’s customers, ensuring they have access to the latest expertise and hands-on support. Looking ahead, TP-Link has already provisioned two additional expansion phases to meet the growing demands.
