WORK is set to start on a new headquarters for a major logistics firm in Fradley after planning permission was approved.

The green light has been given for the Palletways facility which the company says will help support future growth.

The development will be carried out in partnership with Prologis.

Rob Gittins, managing director of Palletways UK, said:

"This milestone represents a significant step in our long-term investment in the UK and, in particular, Lichfield for the last 32 years.  
  
"It underpins our commitment to creating a headquarters that supports the future growth of both our people and network."  
  
"When we selected Prologis as our development partner, we were looking for a team that understood our business and could deliver a facility to suit our operational needs.  
  
"We remain excited by the opportunities this development will create for our customers, our colleagues and our wider network, and we look forward to progressing to the next stage of the project."

Construction is expected to start in November.

Caroline Musker, head of planning at Prologis UK, said:

"When we announced our partnership with Palletways last year, we shared a vision of creating a headquarters that would support the company's long-term ambitions while delivering lasting benefits for the local area.  
  
"Reaching this planning milestone is an important step towards making that vision a reality.  
  
"We're grateful for the constructive engagement of Lichfield District Council throughout the planning process and look forward to progressing the development."
