Nisa-Today's first Scottish distribution centre to create 100 new food jobs
Nisa-Today has announced that the organisation is to open a brand new distribution centre in Livingstone in West Lothian. This new centre, Nisa-Today's first in Scotland, is expected to create up to 100 new food jobs for the area.
Nisa-Today - a symbol group for independent grocery retailers, working in a similar way to a co-operative - is planning to develop the new centre at a site on Dean's Industrial Estate. The project is expected to be complete and the centre open by November 2010.
Once operational, the new 195,000-square-foot Livingston depot will distribute products for sale, via DHL, across Scotland, as well as to Northern Ireland, the Republic of Ireland and the North of England.
Speaking as the news was announced, a representative from Nisa-Today, John Sharpe, said:
Nisa-Today also has distribution centres in Scunthorpe in North Lincolnshire, Harlow in Essex and Stoke-on-Trent in Staffordshire.

"The depot has the necessary capacity for future growth and reduces our food miles by moving goods closer to our customers.
"As Livingston is located in between Glasgow and Edinburgh, there is a high level of skilled labour in the area, which will be extremely beneficial to our business."
