"We keep overflow stock near Raunds and the Warth Park proximity is ideal. Straight onto the A45, quick hop to the A14, and our trunk vehicles are gone before the traffic builds. Faultless for our seasonal peaks."
D2C and marketplace fulfilment for Raunds — branded unboxing where it matters, plain despatch where it does not, all from the same stock on A45.
Multi-channel eCommerce fulfilment for Raunds: one stock pool serving your own store, Shopify, Amazon, eBay, TikTok Shop and Temu, with live availability so nothing oversells. Picks from £1.00 (under 3kg), £1.50 (3–19.99kg), £3.95 (20kg+), plus £0.35 processing. Same-day despatch on a 4pm cut-off, reached via A45, A14 and A6, 40 minutes from the DIRFT core.
Splitting stock between channels is how brands end up oversold on one and out of stock on another. A single pool fixes both.
Every channel reads the same available quantity, updated as orders are picked — so a unit sold on TikTok Shop disappears from your Shopify listing immediately.
Orders flow in from every channel into one pick queue and leave the same working day against a 4pm cut-off, with tracking pushed back automatically.
Add a marketplace and the warehouse side is a configuration change, not a new supplier, a new contract and a stock transfer.

Raunds is a modest Northamptonshire town in the NN9 postcode that carries surprising logistics weight, thanks largely to Warth Park on its edge. That distribution estate has drawn national names including Howdens and a major Primark distribution centre, turning fields off the A45 into a serious warehousing address. The town threads the A45/A14 corridor, with the A6 close by, giving hauliers a clean run east toward the ports or west into Northampton. For a place this size, the sheer scale of shed space is what marks it out.
Geographically, Raunds sits within the East Northamptonshire cluster alongside Rushden, Higham Ferrers, Wellingborough and Kettering - a belt where distribution and e-commerce fulfilment have quietly become the dominant employers. The A14 provides the strategic east-west spine linking Felixstowe traffic through to the M1 and M6, while the A45 handles the local artery down to Northampton. Beyond the big sheds, the town retains a joinery and manufacturing thread, so the mix of freight leaving Raunds ranges from full-load retail stock to smaller trade consignments.
From Raunds it is roughly forty minutes back to the DIRFT and Rugby core of the Golden Triangle, placing the town toward the eastern reach of that famous distribution zone. That still keeps it comfortably inside single-drive-shift range of the M1 and the rail-freight terminal, which is why national operators are content basing stock here. The Kimbolton Road estate adds further capacity close to the town centre. In short: small population, big pallet counts, and a road network that punches well above the local map.
eCommerce fulfilment works well from this part of the country because the carrier network is close. Orders from Raunds brands arrive from Shopify, Amazon, eBay, TikTok Shop and Temu into a single pick queue, leave the same working day, and the tracking goes back to whichever channel the order came from.

Local answers for Raunds, plus the questions every ecommerce fulfilment client asks.
Most warehousing capacity sits at Warth Park on the A45 edge of Raunds, where national names like Howdens and Primark operate distribution centres. The Kimbolton Road estate offers additional space closer to the NN9 town centre for smaller, trade-scale storage needs.
Raunds sits just off the A45, which links directly to the A14 within a few minutes' drive. That gives you the strategic east-west freight route toward Felixstowe one way and the M1/M6 and DIRFT the other, all without touching congested town roads.
Yes - Warth Park was purpose-built for exactly that, hosting large-scale retail and e-commerce distribution operations. With the A45 and A14 on the doorstep and the NN9 location central to the East Midlands, next-day delivery footprints are very achievable from here.
Rushden, Higham Ferrers, Wellingborough and Kettering are all close, forming a tight East Northamptonshire distribution belt. Storage in Raunds lets you serve that whole cluster on short local runs rather than long trunk legs.
Around forty minutes westward via the A45 and A14 links back to the M1. That puts Raunds at the eastern edge of the Golden Triangle, still well within a single driving shift of the Rugby and DIRFT rail-freight core.
Yes — your own store plus Amazon, eBay, TikTok Shop, Temu and Shopify all pull into one pick queue from a single stock pool held at our Golden Triangle warehouse. One count, one invoice, no allocating stock by channel.
Live availability. The moment a unit is allocated to a pick it leaves the figure pushed to every channel, so the last one cannot sell twice — which is what causes the cancellations that damage marketplace accounts.
Same working day on a 4pm cut-off. Late carrier collections mean a Raunds brand’s afternoon orders still make that day’s despatch and land on a next-day service.
Picks from £1.00 under 3kg, £1.50 for 3–19.99kg, £3.95 for 20kg+, plus £0.35 order processing. Storage from £4.50/pallet/week, integration £150/week covering all channels, returns from £1.25.
Yes — D2C orders ship in your boxes with your inserts while marketplace orders ship plain, from the same stock. We hold your packaging alongside your product in Raunds’s nearest WSUK warehouse.
