As an independently owned business, Savona provides quality, consistency, and affordability to a range of industries including Leisure, Education and Hospitality. In August 2024, Savona contacted Aganto to provide a new temporary [canopy structure](https://www.aganto.co.uk/industrial-canopies) to increase storage capacity for stock and provide additional loading space for goods. ## Add-ons used ![](/uploads/generic/images/icons/Linked-Building.svg) Gutter Linked ![](/uploads/generic/images/icons/Roofing.svg) Single Skin PVC Roof ![](/uploads/generic/images/icons/Pedestrian-Access.svg) Pedestrian Access Doors ![Savona Canopy 2025 034](/uploads/generic/images/projects/_520x378_crop_center-center_none/Savona-Canopy-2025-034.jpg) ![Savona Canopy 2025 017](/uploads/generic/images/projects/_520x378_crop_center-center_none/Savona-Canopy-2025-017.jpg) ## The Challenge Due to the busy nature of the business, it was vital that there was minimal disruption to ongoing operations at the time of the build. To meet this requirement, Aganto’s area sales manager, Andy Gilman, quickly visited the Kidlington site to assess Savona’s needs and put together two bespoke proposals, providing pricing for both [rental](https://www.aganto.co.uk/temporary-buildings-hire) and [purchase](https://www.aganto.co.uk/temporary-buildings-for-sale) of two different canopy solutions. “I would like to pass on my thanks to your site team who constructed our canopy. The horrific conditions that they worked in Saturday and Sunday were unbelievable, the storm conditions would have made most pack up and go home. Not these guys without a moan they cracked on and duly finished! You have 4 of the best, I have never seen such commitment to finish a job on time. “ Darren Holloway | Director of Central Operations | Savona Food Services ## Our Solution After discussing which temporary structure would work best for our client, the Aganto team scoped and delivered: - A 15m x 10m temporary canopy - Eaves of 5.2m with single-skin wall cladding - Open gables to allow movement of goods in and out - Complete integration to existing canopy via gutter link - 4-day weekend turnaround for installation, completed in stormy conditions The installation of the temporary canopy provided Savona Foodservice with the additional storage and loading space required to support their growing distribution needs. By working closely with Aganto, Savona was able to implement a cost-effective and practical solution that seamlessly integrated with their existing infrastructure. The new structure has enhanced operational efficiency, allowing for smoother handling of goods while maintaining the high standards of service. This successful collaboration demonstrates Aganto’s ability to deliver tailored, high-quality temporary building solutions that meet the evolving demands of businesses across various industries.
