Pet Foods Warehousing

Quick Summary

Pet food warehousing requires strictly controlled ambient storage conditions alongside rigorous contamination prevention measures. Warehouse facilities must prevent cross-contamination by completely isolating pet feed products from chemicals, non-food cargo, and external pests. Inventory management systems maintain continuous stock rotation to protect product freshness and track batch expiration dates. Trained handling teams manage specialised pick-and-pack fulfilment for both ambient e-commerce orders and bulk retail distribution. Outbound operations coordinate scheduled delivery time slots to ensure compliance with major supermarket and fulfilment centre specifications.

In the UK over 40% of households own at least one pet, and the demand for pet food reflects this. Pet foods require ambient storage conditions and no contamination by other goods. With more niche pet food options and brands entering the market, the total worth of the UK pet foods market is now at £3 billion. There’s been a recent trend within the dog food market for vegetarian/vegan and other dietary or allergy foods, and also to purchasing pet foods via an online platform.

At The NX Group we pride ourselves on going the extra mile for our customers. Our facilities are well-suited to the pet foods market, and our distribution services across the UK are utilised by customers to deliver into retailers, Amazon and end-customers. We tailor solutions to meet our customer requirements.

Warehouse Facilities

The NX Group operates three warehouse facilities, all of which are suitable for ambient pet foods. Our warehouse facilities use a comprehensive Warehouse Management System for all inventory and stock locations – this offers a customer portal. All the facilities are operated by fully trained staff, and the team are on hand for pick and pack/ecommerce services if required.

Delivering Pet Foods

Delivering into retailers or selling via Amazon requires specific retail bookings, meeting pallet specifications and delivering during a dedicated time slot. At NX we understand the importance of getting this right, and we go the extra mile to deliver your goods on time and in the correct conditions. Pet food demands can see regular stock rotation, especially due to promotions and demands, our Warehouse Management System provides an online portal for real-time inventory. Our customers comment on how helpful this is with assisting promotions, stock check and bookings into retailers or end-customers.
