Gist Crewe is one of our original distribution centres. It was built in 1981 to exclusively service the Marks & Spencer (M&S) Food contract. We’ve changed a lot since then, adopting innovative technologies to ensure our customer gets the most out of their supply chain. Operating two daily cycles, we take receipt of both chilled and ambient M&S Food products from suppliers. We then sort and pick product for each M&S Food store serviced by the Crewe depot. Product is then delivered to store within a 15-minute window. Additionally, the depot operates as a cross-docking hub for frozen product and Temperature Controlled Logistics distribution. Peak periods for the depot include Mother’s Day, Easter, and Christmas, as well as M&S promotional events and product launches throughout the year.
