Wincanton announces new five-year contract with The White
Company
Wincanton plc ("Wincanton" or "the Group"), a leading supply
chain partner for UK business, today announces it has been awarded
a new five-year contract with luxury lifestyle retailer, The White
Company. The contract begins immediately and will see Wincanton
provide multi-channel fulfilment services for The White Company,
including international eCommerce order fulfilment, store
replenishment for its footprint of over 60 stores in the UK and
Ireland, and value-added services for around 1.6m customers
annually.
Initially, Wincanton will manage The White Company's existing
warehouse facility in Swan Valley, Northamptonshire. Over the
course of the next 18 months, Wincanton will oversee the migration
of The White Company's central warehousing and distribution
operations to its own state-of-the-art eFulfilment facility at the
WEB , in Rockingham. As part of this move, Wincanton will introduce
further customer experience improvements, operational capabilities
and support capacity for growth, implementing higher levels of
automation to drive efficiency. The migration to the WEB is due to
complete by late-Summer 2023 and, once transitioned, The White
Company will utilise a significant proportion of the WEB's
automated capacity.
Around 175 colleagues, primarily engaged in fulfilment and
warehousing services, will transfer from The White Company to join
the 20,000-strong Wincanton team as part of this partnership.
James Wroath, CEO at Wincanton, commented:
"This contract with The White Company is a big step forward for
Wincanton and a significant milestone for our eFulfilment
operations. In due course our state-of-the-art facility in
Rockingham will be The White Company's central logistics hub and we
will be helping to deliver continued growth in customer experience,
efficiency and productivity for the company through greater use of
automation. It is testament to the strength, breadth and quality of
our services that we have been selected by The White Company who
keep the customer at the heart of everything they do to be their
partner across all parts of their supply chain, building on our
existing relationship as their two-person home delivery provider.
We are excited to get started and I would like to welcome our 175
new colleagues to the Wincanton team."
