Logistics specialist Unipart said it has created hundreds of jobs at a new global parts distribution centre for West Midlands automotive giant Jaguar Land Rover – with hundreds more to follow.
JLR announced a few years back that it was building a 3 million sq ft complex next to Junction 11 of the M42, at Appleby Magna, in west Leicestershire.
The car maker wanted to centralise the work currently done at 19 warehouses dotted around the Midlands and create a global hub to send spares to customers in the UK and 80 countries around the world.
