Brief scope of works

SOCOTEC Building Control Ltd carried out the building control services for Costco’s new distribution depot in Crick, Northampton. Situated in a 60 acre site on Dockham Way in Crick which the depot was constructed to replace Costco’s existing depot in Magna Park. The depot contained a new chilled warehouse, white good warehouse and office space and was completed within a 36 week programme. The building was also designed with an ecommerce section for Costco’s online orders and was designed to facilitate the 
future construction of a second phase.

We have a long standing relationship with Costco in providing building regulations approval, with successful completion of new stores at Farnborough, Hayes and Sunbury.
