Wernick officially opens new Dundee Depot
The Wernick Group is proud to announce the opening of its new hire depot in Dundee, which will operate as a central hub for supporting client needs across Scotland.
This marks a significant part of the company’s broader £20 million commitment to Scotland in recent years. Looking ahead, Wernick is set to invest an additional £5 million in 2025 to enhance their services across Scottish fleets. Once completed, all five of Wernick’s depots in Scotland will be modern premises, underscoring the confidence and trust placed in the Scottish team by company leaders David and Jonathan Wernick.
The decision to relocate and enhance the Dundee depot reflects the company’s continued growth and evolving operational requirements. Wernick Hire Dundees’ former site was no longer adequate to meet the needs of both customers and staff. The new facility therefore offers a fully paved yard, a cutting-edge workshop and a modern, efficient office space that accommodates both administrative and operations teams. Prioritising employee well-being, the facility also includes amenities such as air conditioning, showers, and secure bike storage. The new Dundee depot boasts an EPC rating of B, energy-efficient LED lighting with PIR sensors and EV chargers, all contributing to Wernick’s goal of achieving net zero emissions by 2040.
I am delighted to join Wernick for the opening of their new and improved depot in my constituency of Dundee Central. This investment of over £4 million is a sign of confidence in our city, bringing increased benefits and more jobs not just to our local communities but to the wider Dundee and Tayside area. Companies like Wernick are important employers in our city, and I am sure they will continue to go from strength to strength over the coming months and years.
David Wernick, Chairman of the Wernick Group, added “I am delighted at the success that the team in Scotland have enjoyed over the last few years under the overall guidance of our Regional Director, Ricky Wedlock. In particular, the financial performance of our Dundee depot, under its Depot Manager Gary Stewart, has given us the confidence to invest over £4 million in this new facility. This provides our staff with state-of-the-art facilities and is a well-earned reward for the efforts put in by all concerned.”
With the successful opening of the new Dundee depot, the Wernick Group continues to highlight its commitment to business growth and professional development.
