- Shaw National Distribution Centre (also known as Shaw NDC) was the main distribution and order processing centre for British retailer The Very Group, and is located in Shaw and Crompton, a town in Greater Manchester, England. Shaw NDC is a facility which "stores over 1,000,000 sq ft (93,000 m2) of products", ready for delivery through the group's distribution arm, Business Express. Shaw NDC spans 23 acres (9.3 ha), making it one of Europe's largest warehouse distribution centres. Shaw National Distribution Centre opened for business as a warehousing and returns centre for Littlewoods in 1979. It occupies three converted former cotton mills and two purpose-built stock-handling and sortation facilities. It dominates the skyline of Shaw and Crompton, and is the Metropolitan Borough of Oldham's largest private employer. In 2006 it distributed around 18 million items to customers, and in 2007 processed more than 39 million customer orders. In early 2009 the peak number of staff at the site was reported to be 1,250 people. The centre is still active with delivery company Yodel using one purpose built building as one of three of their national sorting hubs, with future plans to relocate. (en)
