More of Mighty Ape‘s master plan has fallen in to place this week, with the move into our new office building and warehouse.

The big goals of the move are to allow us to hold a lot more stock so we can provide fast service on a wider range of stuff; to (of course) increase our orders-per-day shipping capacity; and to generally make the business a more professional and integrated environment for everyone involved.

The new location has over five times the warehouse space and over three times the office space of our old building, and for the first time we’re actually rivalling our suppliers for physical presence. It definitely feels much more “officey” (board room, anyone?) and it’s going to be a great environment for Mighty Ape to continue to grow.

The warehouse is a real hive of activity with people everywhere picking and packing orders, receiving stock, tidying the resulting mess etc… so it’s really nice to have so much more space for everyone to work in. Having the vertical space (and forklift) to store rarely-used stuff up high with ease is very cool, too, as is receiving palette-loads of goods with ease (Beatles Rock Band got our forklift off to a flying start).

It hasn’t all gone smooth, though. Two days into the move and we’re still shipping orders via a combination of iPhone 3G tethering and remote order processing. TelstraClear doesn’t seem to have the same definition of “urgent” as we do.
