Kelkay piles up the stock ahead of 'aggregates boom'
Published: 29 January 2014
Anticipating an increase in demand for aggregates in gardens this year, Kelkay says it has just made a substantial investment in opening up another 10 acres of its land bank.
Said managing director Antony Harker: "We've done this in order to support exceptional pre-season sales and in preparation for anticipated increased sales during the season ahead."
The greatly-expanded aggregate site is providing storage for back-up stock, currently at 30,000 pallets, which is 50% more than this time last year.
Kelkay also has over 55,000 tons of aggregate stock piled in its yard. The company - for whose business aggregates remain core - says it understands how important it is that its customers have reassurance on stock availability for the coming season, especially with a predicted boom ahead.
