Dhamecha Cash & Carry is gearing up to open its seventh depot.

The 70,000 sq ft site is set to start trading this month in Lewisham, south east London. The opening comes two years after Dhamecha built its sixth depot, in Hayes, West London, following a lengthy search.

Group CEO Pradip Dhamecha said the site would not only provide retailers with a convenient location to collect products, but would also create jobs in the area.
