Anchor Storage is well-known as being a one-stop-shop for all things warehousing, but less appreciated is the company's surprising insight into social and consumer trends. For instance, MD Stephen Britt can take one look at his ReportIT system and see how the great British public are choosing to cope with the recession.

'Bicycle despatches have increased 80% year on year' says Stephen, 'and sales of personal lubricants are going up and up!! Staying In is clearly the new Going Out'. When we started Anchor Storage in 1987 my father and I never dreamt we would get such a snapshot of social trends!'

As well as trend spotting, Anchor Storage handles a vast array of consignments imported primarily through Felixstowe - much of these goods are foodstuffs which Anchor de-vans, palletises, stores, treats, labels and eventually delivers for clients from all over the world. Taking on everything from dried apricots to massage tables to bamboo canes to lawnmowers; from 'bog-standard' storage to 'All-In' fulfilment, who knows what interesting statistic Stephen Britt will discover next!

ReportIT is a state of the art online stock enquiry system. With it customers can confirm their physical stock and unallocated stock online. Weekly stock movements and the ability to produce downloadable reports are also available at the click of a button.
