JD Pipes expands Colchester branch by 75% with enhanced facilities and services

JDP (John Davidson Pipes), a manufacturer and supplier of civils and drainage products, has announced the major expansion of its Colchester branch.

Recently re-opened, this significant upgrade marks a new era for the branch, offering enhanced services and a wider range of water management and drainage products to meet the growing demands of its customers.

The newly expanded JDP Colchester branch now spans a total area of 5,250m2, incorporating the previous site and an additional 2,250 m2. Following the investment, the branch now features extensive storage and warehouse facilities, ensuring a streamlined and efficient operation. This not only allows for greater stock levels but also provides the opportunity to house a more diverse range of products including concrete drainage items, septic tanks, and sewage treatment plants. With a large trade counter space also, the branch is set to enhance the JDP customer service experience too.

In addition, a handy electric vehicle (EV) charging point has been installed at the front entrance, catering to the needs of JDP’s increasingly environmentally conscious customers.

“We are excited to be expanding our Colchester branch by a huge 75%, adding over 2,000 square meters! This investment significantly increases our stock holding capacity and enables us to hold a broader range of civils and drainage products on-site, meeting the diverse needs of our customers.”
