Palletower Accelerates Expansion with Strategic Acquisition of Marcher Storage Systems

  • Company News

Palletower, the UK’s leading supplier of storage and logistics equipment, has continued its rapid growth strategy with the acquisition of Marcher Storage Systems, a long-established SEMA-approved specialist in the design and supply of industrial pallet racking and shelving.

This latest deal is Palletower’s seventh acquisition within the last 24 months, further strengthening the company’s dedicated Racking Division as part of its ongoing expansion across the UK.

Headquartered in Sale, Greater Manchester, and with key international warehouse hubs in Finland and the Czech Republic, Palletower has established itself as one of Europe’s largest storage and logistics equipment providers.

Palletower’s recent strategic focus on the racking and shelving industry has been highly lucrative, with sales within its specialist division, Palletower Racking and Shelving Ltd, growing to almost £7 million since its inception just two years ago.

This momentum has propelled the total Palletower Group business turnover past £40 million, supported by a growing workforce of over 75 employees.

Rob Prill, Operations Director for the Racking and Shelving Division at Palletower, said:

“Marcher Storage Systems has built a strong reputation over decades of trading, and integrating their expertise into our group aligns perfectly with our vision. Our goal is to offer a complete, end-to-end warehouse solution; from full-scale pallet racking infrastructure down to the roll cages, stillages, and pallets needed to move goods.

“This 7th acquisition reinforces our aggressive expansion strategy as we push towards our £50 million turnover target.”

Marcher Storage Systems brings recognised SEMA (Storage Equipment Manufacturers’ Association) approval, reinforcing Palletower’s high standards in structural design, safety compliance, and bespoke warehouse fit-outs.”

Rob Prill added:

“Marcher Storage Systems are a long established SEMA member who are highly respected within their customer base. We are excited to bring this business into our wider group and continue to service and grow its customer base. This exciting strategic acquisition continues our rapid diversification and growth.”

“We continue to explore acquisition opportunities across the UK to further enhance the services we can provide to our customers across industrial racking and shelving, warehouse design and fit-out, storage and logistics equipment services.”

Palletower manufactures and supplies more than 100 product lines, including roll cages, trolleys, racking, stillages, and plastic pallet boxes. With a 60-year heritage in the sector, it exports to more than 35 countries and its customers include GXO, Asda, Walmart, REWE Group and DHL.
