Clementoni UK says the new logistics set up with MTD Group will support and grow the company’s independent business.

Clementoni UK is further expanding its UK operations by opening a new UK logistics hub in July of this year.

The company is partnering with the MTD Group based in Romford, and the new facility will initially be focused on supporting and driving the independent retail business.

Paul Fogarty, UK Country manager, commented: “At Clementoni we are committed to developing the UK business and it was always a big omission for me, since joining last year, that we didn’t have a logistics set up to support and grow our business with the independent sector. I’m delighted to be partnering with John Strong and the MTD Group on this initiative. The MTD Group shares Clementoni’s family approach to busines,s and I’m confident that we have found a superb partner.”

Clementoni is experiencing significant growth in the UK, and has exciting product development planned for 2023 and beyond.

“This new facility will give us a great opportunity to leverage our proven top sellers ranges and lines and broaden our base in the UK market,” added Paul. “Clementoni is No.1 in Science across Europe and the No.2 in adults and kids puzzles (according to Circana/NPD) and we can’t wait to showcase these brands at the upcoming Toymaster show.”
