Ocado to close fulfilment centre putting over 2,000 jobs at risk

Ocado-Plum-Van-scaled

Ocado is set to close its Hatfield customer fulfilment centre, putting 2,300 jobs at risk.

The online grocer will shut the oldest site in its network in favour of “new enhanced fulfilment centres”.

Ocado’s Hatfield centre currently fulfils 20% of its 400,000 orders to customers per week, but the group said this will now be moved to its “high-productivity, next-generation” facilities around the UK.
