Wessex Packaging has its HQ and National Distribution Centre in Somerset, and with MorsaPack as part of the group, the company can provide an increased level of customer service to companies throughout the UK. This new location will allow Wessex to increase their stockholding in the northern warehouse, to better support customers and have a positive impact on the business’s carbon footprint.
Lead by Managing Director, Robert McEwan, MorsaPack has a well-established and loyal customer base, with a focus on service, sustainability and value. The company originally started as a contract packing business but grew to become a trusted wholesale packaging supplier offering a wide range of products, materials and equipment to companies across the North of England, and Scotland.
Wessex operates as a national wholesale packaging business, and experts in pallet wrap and load stability products, working in partnership with national and multinational companies across the UK. Wessex Packaging is also the official GB distributor for the innovative ErgoPack strapping machine range.
Robert McEwan, MD of MorsaPack, says: “We’re delighted to join forces with the Wessex Packaging team and become part of the Wessex Group. Mark and his team are recognised as highly professional, innovative and trustworthy packaging partners to many major businesses across the UK, and the synergy of both companies will ensure that together we’re providing the best possible packaging solutions and services to companies throughout the country.”
Mark Barter, MD of Wessex Packaging, says: “These are exciting times, and we’re all thrilled to have Robert and his team at MorsaPack join the Wessex family. We have a very bright future together, and with the Wessex Group now having a base in the North, we’ll be able to share our ‘Clever Packaging People’ ethos more easily with a wider range of customers.”
