"Market Harborough is perfectly placed for us. The A6 gets our stock up to Leicester and the A14 links down to Kettering, and WSUK handle the storage side so we can just concentrate on making the product."
Per-unit FBA prep serving Market Harborough and Leicestershire: prep priced separately so you can work out cost per ASIN, 25 minutes from the DIRFT core.

Market Harborough plays a quieter but genuinely useful role in the Golden Triangle, sitting on the LE16 border where Leicestershire meets Northamptonshire. The A6 runs through it linking Leicester to the north with the Northamptonshire warehousing belt to the south, while the A14 lies close by as the great East-West freight route. With M1 Junction 20 reachable via the A427, the town is around 25 minutes from the DIRFT and Rugby core - close enough to serve, far enough to offer breathing space away from the busiest sheds.
The town's industrial space is more human-scaled than the mega-parks nearer the motorways. The Riverside Industrial Estate and Rockingham Road handle established light-industrial and trade occupiers, while the Airfield Business Park out towards the former airfield offers newer units. This spread suits businesses that want dependable Midlands connectivity without committing to a vast distribution shed - a practical middle ground between town-centre trade and full-blown warehousing.
Light manufacturing, distribution and food and drink shape Market Harborough's economy, and its position between two logistics regions is its real advantage. Lutterworth and Magna Park sit west towards the M1, Leicester lies north on the A6, and Kettering and Corby - the East Midlands' big warehousing cluster - are a short run south down towards the A14. Goods moving through Market Harborough can therefore bridge the Leicestershire and Northamptonshire supply chains along roads that stay clear of the motorway crush.
Sellers near Market Harborough can use us purely as a prep bench and hold stock wherever they like. Most end up keeping buffer stock here too, because that is where the larger saving against Amazon's storage actually is.

On the LE16 Leicestershire-Northamptonshire border, roughly 25 minutes from the DIRFT/Rugby core. The A6 and A14 give it a foot in two logistics regions, with M1 Junction 20 reachable via the A427.
More human-scaled than the motorway mega-parks. The Riverside Industrial Estate and Rockingham Road host established light-industrial occupiers, while Airfield Business Park provides newer units - ideal for firms wanting Midlands reach without a giant shed.
That is exactly its strength. Leicester sits north on the A6, while Kettering and Corby's warehousing cluster lie south towards the A14, so goods routed through Market Harborough bridge both supply chains on quieter roads.
Via the A427 across to Junction 20, which also puts Lutterworth and Magna Park within easy reach to the west. It is a short, generally clear run that avoids the heaviest motorway sections around the hub.
