Wincanton has won a five-year contract providing services for luxury lifestyle retailer The White Company.
The contract starts immediately and sees Wincanton provide multi-channel fulfilment services, including international e-commerce order fulfilment and store replenishment for more than 60 stores in the UK and Ireland.
Wincanton said it would start by managing The White Company’s existing warehouse facility in Swan Valley, Northamptonshire but over the next 18 months it would oversee the migration of the company's central warehousing and distribution operations to its own e-fulfilment facility in Rockingham (pictured).
