A foodservice company is relocating its North Wales depot to a new larger site.
Castell Howell, which has its headquarters in Cross Hands in Carmarthenshire, is moving its north west Wales hub from Blaenau Ffestiniog to Porthmadog.
It is taking on space at Gelert House in the town.
This will boost storage capacity for the company although at this stage not increase staff numbers.
Martin Jones, director of transport operations, said: “The move to Porthmadog is logistical and will double our storage capacity.
“The new warehouse will best suit our needs for servicing our customers in North Wales.
“It will have the same staffing levels and is integral to our plans for managing the recovery in the foodservice and hospitality sector.’’
