Around 60 jobs are set to be created following the launch of a new logistics brand in the North East.
Elanders is expanding its Bergen Logistics brand in the UK with a 48,000sqft facility in North Tyneside, specialising in fashion and lifestyle fulfilment. The expansion is led by the Elanders UK team and will see Bergen Logistics move into a £4.6m industrial unit on the Tyne Tunnel Trading Estate, aided by property owners UK Land Estates.
The Bergen Logistics brand will expand its presence across the UK, EU and USA, providing fulfilment services to the fashion and lifestyle sectors, to include clothing, footwear, handbags, accessories and cosmetics, home goods, medical devices and supplements. The new facility will also be based very close to the Elanders UK headquarters in North Tyneside.
