Wernick opens £3 million Dunston depot

13th August 2025

Wernick Group has continued its ambitious investment programme with the £3 million redevelopment of its Dunston depot.

The project saw the creation of a spacious new workshop and modern office building, the demolition of outdated structures, and the installation of a fully concreted yard with upgraded drainage systems.

Last week’s official opening welcomed key suppliers, customers, and the contractors who delivered the scheme. Guests were given guided tours of the new facilities by Regional Director Tony Ampleford and General Manager Steve Bradley.

The event included a speech from Wernick Group Chairman, David Wernick, who thanked all involved before cutting the ribbon to officially open the depot. The celebration continued with networking and a buffet lunch.

Thank you to our clients for your continued support. We are proud to make this level of investment, and the new Dunston depot will allow us to deliver faster, more efficient service to customers across the region, while providing a modern, well-equipped base for our growing team. Over the past five years, we have invested more than £300 million, including over £100 million in the last year alone - supporting our commitment to become a carbon zero company by 2040.
