UK Warehousing & Distribution
for Growing Businesses

Need secure, dependable pallet storage you can trust?

Warehousing that puts your business first

CS Ellis provides reliable UK warehousing for food, FMCG, and manufacturing businesses storing 1,000–5,000 pallets. Unlike large, impersonal warehouses, we offer hands-on service, full traceability, and seamless UK-wide distribution.

Our operation is particularly well suited to growing FMCG, food manufacturing, and retail-facing businesses requiring integrated warehousing and nationwide pallet distribution under one accountable partner.

With over 31,000 pallet spaces across multiple East Midlands sites near the A1, M1, and A47, we give fast access to national trunking routes and next-day delivery. From short-term overspill to long-term storage and integrated fulfilment, our teams manage container inbound flows, palletisation, stock handling, order prep, and distribution — reducing handovers and lead times.

Onboarding is fully structured, aligning systems, data, and workflows for a smooth, disruption-free transition.
