STARK Group has cut the first sod for a new, expansive distribution centre for light building materials in Denmark. The investment marks a step forward in the company's vision to enhance its already leading distribution of building materials. The new warehouse spans 24,000 square meters and will ensure day-to-day delivery of 50,000 SKUs to construction sites and branches nationally.
The new distribution centre is strategically located in Greater Copenhagen, giving STARK access to 35% of their customer base within an hour's drive. This investment underscores the company's focus on growing in urban areas, especially around major cities and capitals where construction growth is most significant.
The new distribution centre will be equipped with state-of-the-art technology, including a fully automated AutoStore. This innovative solution will enable the processing of up to 150 order lines per hour and the storage of approximately 30,000 items in just 2,000 square meters.
The new distribution centre is striving for a DGNB Gold certification and is expected to be completed in the summer of 2026.
STARK Group is a leading business-to-business merchant and distributor of heavy building materials for the construction industry in Europe, with a strategic focus on serving professional builders from its more than 1,100 branches.
