B&H Worldwide Strengthens UK Operations with Heathrow HQ Expansion
HEATHROW, LONDON – B&H Worldwide, one of the world’s leading aviation logistics providers, has announced the acquisition of a 6,000-square-foot office and warehouse unit at its existing facility near Heathrow Airport. This strategic move aims to strengthen the company’s commitment to delivering high-speed and reliable logistics solutions to the global aviation industry.
Located just 10 minutes from Heathrow, the new facility is designed to provide a dedicated inventory management solution for a client in the aircraft engine leasing sector. With this expansion, B&H Worldwide will enable round-the-clock, year-round receipt and dispatch services, ensuring critical aviation components are handled with precision at all hours.
Advanced Security and Inventory Management
The new warehouse is equipped with CCTV surveillance systems and security measures compliant with Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) standards. Advanced temperature and humidity controls ensure sensitive aviation components are stored under optimal conditions. The facility also includes a dedicated area for hazardous materials storage.
Clients can track all items stored at the facility in real-time through B&H Worldwide’s proprietary FirstTRAC inventory management platform. The company has already transferred over 7,000 client items to the new facility, expanding the existing inventory capacity.
Supporting Reduced AOG Times
This increase in storage capacity will significantly contribute to reducing Aircraft-On-Ground (AOG) times for airlines worldwide. By continuing to provide tailored solutions at a strategic location, B&H Worldwide strengthens its leadership position in aviation logistics.
Alan Barlow, Head of B&H Worldwide UK Operations, said:
“This investment in our Heathrow hub demonstrates our commitment to the evolving needs of the aviation sector. The new unit not only increases our capacity but also enables us to provide our clients with a more responsive, secure, and efficient inventory management solution. This will help deliver faster AOG recovery times worldwide.”
