Vermont Sales goes green and bigger

Vermont Sales has a brand new head office - designed and built to their own specifications, that incorporates a variety of green design elements, and is 40 percent larger than their old premises.

 

Going green

The new building has been designed to incorporate green elements such as double-glazed windows for temperature control, and light harvesters to reduce lighting costs during daylight hours, as well as solar panels. This is backed up with a stand-by generator in case of load shedding and power failures.

The building also has an integrated rain harvester that stores 180 000 litres of water for use in the gardens and toilets.

Larger premises - Better service

The new building is the perfect home for Vermont Sales. New systems have been included to improve services at all levels and this will improve the time spent picking, packing and delivery. "With the huge amount of additional space, Vermont Sales have ample space for expansion and can stock more products than before. We are all delighted about moving in and are ready for the 2016 challenge that lies ahead,” said Roland Hunt, founder and owner of Vermont Sales.
