Move One Dubai warehouse facilities were no longer big enough to handle the volume of cargo the Dubai team was moving, so Move One Dubai moves itself to a massive new facility.

Move One Dubai has moved its warehousing to a massive new facility.  The warehousing facilities used for one specific project were no longer big enough to handle the volume of cargo the Dubai team was moving so a new location had to be found.

The warehouse space that Move One Logistics occupied in Dubai’s Industrial City had slowly been growing for years. What started in one ten-thousand square foot warehouse had required expansion into neighbouring depots multiple times. It recently reached a point where Move One was using five of the warehouses in a row, making up a quarter of all the available space on site, in addition to a secondary warehouse (for the same project) in the Jebel Ali Free Zone. As the project and Move One’s capabilities continued to grow, having such an unusual set-up no longer became viable; it was time to move.

The decision was finalised in December last year and the search for the most suitable location began. As early as January this year an ideal new site was found and preparations for the move commenced. Conducting the entire move without interrupting deliveries or missing deadlines required maximum dedication and organisation from the whole team. Detailed plans were formulated over the next month, coordinating with contractors, vendors and agents to make the move utterly seamless. By mid-March the team was ready to go; the original facilities stopped receiving new cargo, which were instead redirected to the freshly acquired Jebel Ali Warehouse facility, a 65,000 square foot depot.

Before the end of March the original warehouses were emptied. Not one piece of material was lost, deadline expired or vessel cut-off missed over the course of this demanding relocation. The new facility now averages 35 to 40 containers a week, all out of one integrated location.  Having all of the operation under one roof has significantly boosted efficiency throughout, making every project smoother and easier to handle for everyone involved.
