Former Dragons' Den star Nick Jenkins has been invited to open a new headquarters and warehouse for a fast-growing Wiltshire furniture firm. Mr Jenkins, founder of online greetings card company Moonpig, will cut the ribbon on Furnturebox's new state-of-the-art site in September.
The 15-metre-high warehouse is located on an 88,000 sq metre plot at St Modwen Park in Chippenham, near the M4. According to Furniturebox, the new space will give it room to grow and expand its product line. The firm said the extra space would also mean it is able to keep more lines in stock, and offer a later cut off for next day delivery.
The company is planning to cover the whole roof in solar panels and install nine electric car charging points at the site.
