Dorset Chamber Chief Executive opens new warehouse
To celebrate the collaboration of two Dorset Chamber members, Polyhose UK and Mar-Key Group, Ian Girling, the Chief Executive of Dorset Chamber was welcomed to the official opening of the new warehouse at Polyhose UK.
Mar-Key Group designs, manufactures and builds structures for commercial clients and events. A champion of British manufacturing, their flexible, modular, reusable designs can be delivered and installed quickly on any surface, enabling companies to adapt to changing business needs.
With ambitious growth plans for 2025, Polyhose UK, an energy conveyance products wholesaler in Christchurch, needed to create additional warehousing space to accommodate a broader range of products and increase the depth of its UK stock holding. In order to facilitate this, Mar-Key Groups temporary structures offered a fast, flexible and cost-effective solution they required.
The warehouse on the Polyhose site comes at an excellent time as their dedicated warehouse and distribution site in Christchurch, Dorset supplies customers all over the UK with world-class Thermoplastic, PTFE, Rubber Hydraulic, Industrial, Composite, Stainless Steel, Flexible hoses and Fluid Connectors.
Marc Whibley, Managing Director at Polyhose UK, was delighted to find a suitable supplier on the doorstep. “The team at Mar-Key Group took the time to explain the flexible modular options for temporary and permanent space. They gave us the confidence that although a building might be temporary, it would still be incredibly durable, safe and comfortable for our staff to work in and fit for our purpose. Once the groundworks were complete, Mar-Key Group finished the structure in just a few weeks. It was incredible to see how much progress they made so quickly and to see our vision for the new building come to life.”
Charlie Watson, Business Development Manager at Mar-Key Group, added, “It has been fantastic to work on this build with Polyhose and collaborate with a fellow Dorset Chamber member. The installation is around the corner from our manufacturing facility, and it was great to watch the team turn an empty land into usable space. I know the additional warehousing will make a real difference to Polyhose, and I wish them every success in growing their business.”
Visiting the site, Dorset Chamber Chief Executive commented, “Dorset has a vibrant and exciting business community, and we are passionate about supporting local companies and seeing them succeed. It is a pleasure to visit projects like this and see Chamber members working together to deliver growth.”
Mar-Key Group have been providing modular solutions since 1991 across a diversified range of sectors. Not only do they provide readily available solutions, they also have customisable building options suitable for any purpose.
