Wincanton extends Ibstock Brick contract

Wincanton has extended its contract with brick manufacturer Ibstock Brick by four years.

The operator manages 95% of the distribution of Ibstock Brick’s products and will be the sole supplier of transport at its new factory in Leicestershire, which opened in June.

Ranald Forbes, director of construction at Wincanton, said: “Our specialised networks have been crucial to the extension of this relationship with Ibstock Brick, as well as our position as market leader in this sector. With a relationship spanning over two decades, we have grown with the Ibstock Brick business and we hope to continue to do so into the future.”

The two companies have a relationship stretching back 20 years.
