It’s the end of the line for an Andover wholesaler as the last cage was shipped out before it closes for good. As previously reported, Booker Retail Partners, located on the Walworth Industrial Estate, is closing its Andover distribution centre and consolidating its operations in Didcot after deciding its site in town was too small for its needs.
