CEVA opens new facility in Derby
CEVA Logistics, a global leader in third-party logistics, has announced the opening of a new large-scale warehouse operation in Derby, UK, marking another significant milestone for the company and further strengthening its position as a strategic logistics partner for leading global eCommerce brands.
The new operation, scheduled to go live in August 2026, will see CEVA manage a dedicated facility designed to support the rapid deployment of fast-moving inventory for fulfilment to end-customers across the UK.
CEVA will operate the new 508,000-square-foot warehouse facility in Derby to manage the storage, handling and distribution of customer inventory, enabling faster, more efficient customer deliveries across the UK. The operation supports continued investment and expansion within the UK eCommerce sector and is expected to create approximately 300 new jobs in the region.
The Derby facility has been developed with sustainability and operational efficiency in mind, featuring EPC A+ certification, a BREEAM Excellent rating and a solar roof installation designed to support lower-energy operations.
The warehouse has been designed with more than 147,000 dynamic pick faces and variable storage locations, providing scalable capacity to support future growth and increasing customer demand. Additional capacity can be created by installing further racking and converting block-stack floor space, while maintaining operational flexibility and the highest service standards.
A key feature of the project is the accelerated implementation timeline, with fewer than 20 weeks between contract award and operational commencement. The successful mobilisation reflects close collaboration across CEVA’s business development, solution design, legal, project management and account management teams to ensure rapid deployment and operational readiness.
Mike Weaver, managing director, Contract Logistics, UKIN, CEVA Logistics, said: “This new operation highlights CEVA’s ability to deliver large-scale, high-performance logistics solutions at speed. The Derby facility combines operational scale, sustainability and flexibility to support the evolving requirements of today’s eCommerce market. This new site will also further strengthen CEVA Logistics’ contract logistics network in the UK and reinforce the company’s expertise in delivering scalable eCommerce and retail supply chain solutions.”
