The site on Deltic Way, built in 1989, includes an area earmarked for seven smaller units covering a further 18,700sq ft.
Plans for these additional units have been submitted to Sefton Council, said PAM Group, which works with companies such as Asda to supply their staff with equipment to help them perform their roles better, as well as selling direct to consumers.
The warehouse will be the main storage and distribution centre for PAM Health, which sells exercise, fitness, sports, ergonomic, physiotherapy and rehabilitation equipment.
Fast-growing PAM Health supplies consumers as well as professionals such as physiotherapists, and healthcare providers. It has expanded through acquisitions as well as organically, with revenues on track to reach £5m this year.
James Murphy, founder and chief executive of PAM Group, said the investment would initially generate 25 new jobs across PAM Health’s warehousing, sales and customer service operations, rising to 50 over the next couple of years.
Following a fit-out of the warehouse, the company plans to install video recording and photographic studios there alongside a technical support unit.OmazeOne Person is Guaranteed to Win a Devon HouseHealthy GummiesCannabis Gummies Major Discovery Leaves Yatton Doctors Speechlessby TaboolaSponsored Links
The single-storey warehouse has a steel frame construction and covers 2.13 acres. The entire site purchased by PAM Group spans 3.3 acres.
Mr Murphy said: “We are delighted to have completed the purchase of this site, which doubles our existing warehouse capacity and will enable us to support the expansion of PAM Health. There is a huge increase in demand for its vast range of products, particularly as people work more from home and have more neurodiversity needs.
“Our new warehouse means we will be able to hold more stock and ensure continuity of supply for our growing customer base.
“This investment marks the latest exciting chapter in the growth and development of PAM Group as we continue to build for the future.
“We look forward to progressing plans for the seven smaller units at the site, which will be used for further PAM Health operations including a specialist clinical laboratory, creating more jobs in the area.”https://get-latest.convrse.media/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.business-live.co.uk%2Fcommercial-property%2Fpam-group-buys-huge-merseyside-20572149&cre=bottom&cip=23&view=web
