Expansion of the Ambernath distribution centre
Patel Retail Limited has informed the exchanges that it proposes to develop approximately 20,000 square feet of additional covered space at its existing distribution centre located at Ambernath, Maharashtra.
Why the company says it is doing this
- The existing distribution centre has a capacity of 64000 Sq. ft., which is 100 % utilised.
- The company says the additional space is intended to improve utilisation of the existing premises and strengthen storage, packing, inventory management and distribution operations.
- It is also meant to make replenishment of existing retail stores smoother and to support upcoming store openings under the company's cluster-based expansion strategy.
Money and timeline
- Investment required: Rs.2 Crores.
- Mode of financing: Internal Accrual, which means the company plans to fund it from its own accruals rather than fresh borrowing or equity issuance.
- The proposed capacity is to be added within approximately 15-20 days from the date of this intimation.
How the numbers sit together
- Existing capacity: 64000 Sq. ft., used at 100 %.
- Proposed addition: 20,000 Sq.ft.
- Investment: Rs.2 Crores.
The addition of 20,000 Sq. ft. is on top of an existing capacity of 64000 Sq. ft. that the company shows as fully utilised, and the stated investment for the addition is Rs.2 Crores funded internally.
What to keep in mind
The update uses the word "proposes" — this is described as a proposed development, with the capacity to be added within an approximate 15-20 day window from the date of the intimation. The stated purpose is to support the company's supply chain and its planned retail network expansion.
