Happy2Move was entrusted with the relocation and storage needs of a renowned French Brasserie chain in London. This project involved moving items from multiple branches, including Ealing, Camden, and Richmond, into storage and transferring items between other stores. The complexity of the operation required a swift and discreet approach to minimise disruption.

The Challenge

This large-scale project came with several unique challenges:

  • Urgent Timeline: The move needed to be completed within five days, requiring a fast yet efficient approach.
  • Discreet Operations: The client needed the move to be handled with minimal visibility to avoid impacting customer perception.
  • Multiple Moving Parts: Coordinating across three locations with different requirements added logistical complexity.
  • Inventory Management: All items had to be carefully itemised for storage and redistribution.

Our Solution

Tailored Plan

Happy2Move developed a structured plan to address the client’s needs:

  1. Full Packing Service: Our expert packers itemised and packed inventory, ensuring secure transport and accurate tracking.
  2. Efficient Transport: Over five days, a team of eight movers and eight Luton vans were deployed across the sites to manage the move.
  3. Storage Solutions: Items from the brasserie’s branches were carefully moved into storage facilities or redistributed to other stores as needed.
  4. Discreet Execution: Our team worked quietly and efficiently, maintaining the professional image of the brasserie chain.

Execution Details

  • Seamless Coordination: A dedicated project manager oversaw the logistics, ensuring the team worked harmoniously across the multiple locations.
  • Inventory Control: Items were meticulously itemised and labeled to facilitate storage and redistribution.
  • Quick Turnaround: Each phase of the move was completed promptly, meeting the client’s tight timeline.

The Results

The entire move was completed within seven days, meeting the client’s urgent requirements. All inventory was securely stored or transferred to other branches, and the discreet handling of the operation maintained the client’s professional image.

Client Satisfaction

The project manager for the French Brasserie chain expressed satisfaction with Happy2Move’s efficiency, professionalism, and ability to manage a complex and time-sensitive project seamlessly.
