Ocado has received approval to open a new delivery and distribution hub at Fairham Business Park, off the A453 in Nottinghamshire. The facility will operate 24/7 and employ up to 422 people, including 358 van drivers, 24 marshallers, 17 office staff, and five maintenance workers.
The site will serve the wider Nottingham area, addressing growing demand for online grocery deliveries. Ocado plans to install fuel pumps, docking areas, CCTV, and other infrastructure upgrades.
Rushcliffe Borough Council approved the development, citing minimal impact on the surrounding environment and infrastructure. The project supports the expanding logistics sector and strengthens Ocado’s distribution network in the Midlands.
