Wickes Case Study

Bluestones One are very proud to have supported Wickes with their new store opening in Bolton. 

The new store features 4,270 sq ft showroom including showroom windows and a dedicated 2,200 sq ft warehouse. This massive project included lots of cross team functionality with many different teams collaborating together to produce a fantastic new store which not only looks great but functions highly efficiently and effectively.

We were able to support this project by supplying teams to deliver the installation of all racking and gondola and also supported the merchandising activity. Take a look at the video above to see the results!

It was a pleasure to support on this amazing new store – well done to all involved.

Tell us about your role at Bluestones OneI am the Lead Resource Coordinator and have been with Bluestones One for almost three years now. I started out in the field as a Merchandiser, then moved up to Team Leader before I got offered a permanent role within the office. I spend most of my time based in our North East office where we run a small team responsible for allocating the work to the field staff. On a day to day basis, we allocate the work and resources needed for each job site. How would you normally start your day at work?The start of each day is different and led by what has happened the previous night. The main priority is to resolve any day to day challenges or additional requests generated by the night teams. Once resolved we can move onto the planning of the following days and weeks.
