Double Contract Win For Miller Construction

Miller Construction has been awarded two contracts by Costco Wholesale UK Ltd to build a new warehouse club and extend one of its existing units.

The leading construction firm won a multi million pound contract for the new-build of a Costco warehouse club in Croydon, which will span 12,900 sq metres on a nine acre plot.

The work will include the demolition of the former Ford Motor Company metal parts plant, which was previously part of Croydon Airport, together with storage tanks and air raid shelters.

In addition, Miller Construction has been awarded a £4m contract to build a 2,000 sq metre extension to Costco's Edinburgh club. The work involves the refurbishment of the existing building and fit-out of the new areas, as well as the creation of new receiving bay infrastructure.
