Ceva Logistics has won 10-year contracts with four major retailers with a combined value of $400m (£260.2m).

The supply chain management firm will provide warehousing, store deliveries, e-commerce fulfilment, returns and international distribution to ladies’ fashion retailers Coast, Karen Millen, Oasis and Warehouse.

The new contracts will be run out of a newly-acquired 25,000m² facility in Oxfordshire.

The semi-automated site, which employs 330 people, will handle the processing and storage of both hanging and boxed garments and fashion accessories.

As well as deliveries to the brands’ 752 UK stores and concessions, Ceva will handle operations in 52 overseas markets across Europe, the Far and Middle East, Russia and Latin America, including all relevant customs clearance activity.

Michael O’Donoghue, Ceva MD for the UK, Ireland and Nordics, said: “We welcome Coast, Karen Millen, Oasis and Warehouse to our growing retail fashion business, and look forward to these long-term partnerships.

“10-year contracts are rarely seen in our industry, and I believe that these are testament to our ability to design truly effective solutions, optimise supply chain operations and provide service quality that stands the test of time.”
