I enjoyed returning to the DCS Group’s distribution centre in Banbury for a catchup with senior management. I first visited shortly after founder Denys Shortt had moved the operation to our town in 2016 to grow the business.
It was great to hear from Chief Executive Michael Lorimer and Chief Revenue Officer Simon Whitebread about how well they have been getting on since then. The company has gone from strength to strength and now stands as the UK’s largest distributor and manufacturer for leading brands such as P&G, Unilever and Colgate.
The team have lots of exciting plans for the future and hope to continue growing their workforce, which already stands at 150. I was delighted to get the chance to visit one of Banbury’s most successful operations once again!
