The InternetRetailing Warehousing 2025 report looks at a critical stage of the direct-to-consumer journey. Retailers are investing in their warehouses to ensure they can deliver at pace, and in an increasingly green way.
The report harnesses RetailX research and features three retailer interviews. B&Q tells InternetRetailing how it is utilising its store network to provide its customers with choice – not simply products but also how and when they are delivered. The report hears from Pets at Home on how its distribution centre fits into its next decade of growth. The founders of Furniturebox explain why its facility is key to an 8pm next-day delivery cut off.
Additionally, the report covers how Boots has introduced warehouse robotics to work alongside employees.
Exploring the potential of warehouse roof space for solar panels, this report also highlights Dunelm’s energy plans.

- A strategic overview of the UK warehouse sector
- The growth of 3PLs and 4PLs
- Why warehouse systems and robotics are being introduced at pace
