The new warehouse, retail and office facility were commissioned by one of Suffolk’s oldest family companies, ER & RT Rackham Ltd of Wickham Market.

Where permitted, we worked through the COVID crisis to complete the building, carefully managing the project to ensure that Rackhams could continue to trade through the construction programme.

Where previously brick pillars obstructed the view of the Deli, we have created a much larger shop window which allows the sandwich bar and takeaway to better attract interest from passers-by.
