Hived has announced the opening of a brand-new depot in West London as part of its expansion to meet the rising demand for its parcel delivery services. The new facility, located in SEGRO Park Hayes, marks a significant step in Hived’s mission to deliver more parcels quickly and sustainably to Londoners.
Since its inception, Hived has focused on transforming the parcel delivery experience by putting consumers first and leveraging cutting-edge technology. The new depot, which is already fully operational, is equipped to handle up to 40,000 parcels per day. This increased capacity allows Hived to better serve both enterprise clients and small-to-medium-sized businesses as demand continues to grow.
The West London site is staffed by an initial team of 45 employees and plays a crucial role in supporting Hived’s 100% electric delivery network. Thanks to an abundance of clean electricity and advanced fast-charging infrastructure, Hived can efficiently operate its fleet of electric heavy goods vehicles (eHGVs) for long-haul journeys, as well as electric vehicles for middle and final-mile deliveries. Hived is also one of the first companies in the UK to adopt electric HGVs, reinforcing its commitment to sustainable logistics.
The launch of this depot follows a record-breaking first quarter and is just one of several planned milestones for Hived over the next 18 months as the company prepares for further geographic expansion beyond London.
