Bathroom manufacturer, SONAS Bathrooms, has announced the opening of their UK distribution centre in Redditch, scheduled for August 2026.
Opening in Summer 2026, the distribution centre will become the central base for SONAS’ UK distribution operations. The facility aims to improve supply reliability and shorten its delivery time to 24 hours for over 500 existing UK retail partners.
CEO of SONAS Bathrooms in Ireland and the UK, Richard Sloan said, “The opening of our UK distribution centre reflects the strength of our UK expansion which has taken place over the past three years. Our growth in the UK has been sustained and consistent, and this investment ensures our infrastructure keeps pace with demand.
“In Ireland, our customers rely on next day delivery supported by a 98% On Time in Full (OTIF) rate. That level of operational discipline is central to how we do business. The Midlands facility allows us to apply the same proven model in the UK, giving our retail partners greater certainty around stock availability and service performance.”
The facility, a high specification industrial warehouse which spans 60,801 sq. ft, will enable SONAS to reach any area of the UK within 4 hours, supporting its customer commitment to provide 24-hour delivery.
