  • Banding, sleeving & shrink wrap

Relabelling & Compliance

Barcodes corrected, country-of-origin and language labels applied, retailer-spec labels added and old labels removed properly.

  • Barcode & SKU relabelling
  • Compliance & language labels
  • Over-labelling or full removal

Local Coverage

Co-Packing & Repacking in Lichfield — Staffordshire Local Knowledge

For a cathedral city, Lichfield carries a surprisingly heavy logistics footprint, and the reason is simple: Fradley Park sits on its doorstep. That park has become one of the fastest-growing distribution locations in the Midlands, strung along the A38 with quick reach to the A5 and the M6 Toll at T5. Sitting in Staffordshire's WS13 and WS14 postcodes, Lichfield is roughly 45 minutes from the DIRFT and Rugby core - further out than the triangle's heart, but firmly plugged into the same motorway grid.

The A38 is Lichfield's backbone, running north towards Burton and south into Birmingham, while the M6 Toll at T5 and the M42 at Junction 9 give operators a way to skirt the congested central motorway box. That combination is exactly what has drawn big-shed distribution to Fradley Park, alongside Britannia Enterprise Park and the older Trent Valley estate. Together they offer a spread of modern logistics units and light-industrial space within a couple of minutes of a trunk road.

Lichfield's business base is weighted towards distribution, logistics and light manufacturing, and its neighbours reinforce that character. Tamworth's Relay Park lies just east across the M42, Cannock's warehousing cluster sits west along the A5 and M6 Toll, and Burton upon Trent - Britain's brewing capital - is a short run north on the A38. Goods routed through Lichfield can therefore tap into a dense Staffordshire logistics network without ever leaving the A38 corridor for long.

Repacking and rework is worth far more than most brands assume. A pallet rejected at a retailer over a label is a rework job at pennies a unit, not a write-off — and for Lichfield suppliers it can be inspected, corrected and back on its way inside the same week.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Local answers for Lichfield, plus the questions every co-packing & repacking client asks.

Why is Lichfield such a strong logistics location?

Fradley Park, on the A38 just outside the city, is one of the Midlands' fastest-growing distribution parks. Add the M6 Toll at T5 and the M42 at Junction 9 and Lichfield gives operators big-shed capacity with a clean run around the central motorway box.

How far is Lichfield from your Golden Triangle hub?

Lichfield sits roughly 45 minutes from the DIRFT/Rugby core in the WS13 and WS14 postcodes. It is on the outer edge of the triangle, but the A38 and M6 Toll keep the trunk run into the hub straightforward.

Which Lichfield estates can you store goods on?

We work across Fradley Park for modern distribution units, Britannia Enterprise Park, and the established Trent Valley estate. That range lets us place light-industrial and larger logistics stock close to the A38 as needed.

Can you connect Lichfield stock with Tamworth and Cannock?

Yes. Tamworth's Relay Park is just east over the M42 and Cannock's warehousing cluster sits west along the A5 and M6 Toll. We route between them regularly, so Lichfield works well as a Staffordshire staging point.

Does the M6 Toll actually help deliveries from Lichfield?

It does. Joining at T5 lets vehicles bypass the busiest stretch of the M6 through the conurbation, which makes southbound and Birmingham-bound runs from Lichfield more predictable, especially at peak times.

What co-packing can you do for Lichfield brands?

Multipacks and banded sets, sleeving and shrink wrapping, promotional and gift packs, shelf-ready outers, relabelling and barcode correction, and rework of rejected stock. Simple repacks from £0.45 per unit, relabelling from £0.75.

Can you rework stock a retailer rejected?

Yes — send a sample first. We inspect it and tell you honestly what proportion is recoverable and the cost per unit before you commit the pallets. It almost always beats writing the stock off.

Do we have to send stock somewhere separate?

No, and that is the main saving. The work happens in the same Lichfield-serving warehouse your stock already sits in, so you avoid two freight movements and a week of transit.

How do you make sure the pack is right?

A first-off sample is built and approved by you before the run starts, with a QC check per batch afterwards. Nothing runs at volume until you have seen one.

Does the finished pack become its own SKU?

Yes — barcoded as its own SKU, counted into stock and pickable immediately, so a promotional pack can be built and despatched to a retailer in the same week.
