The contract, awarded to Palletways Fulfilment, the firm’s warehousing solutions operation, follows a successful trial period and will see Beauchamp Foods outsource its domestic warehousing and distribution function to the company.
Palletways Fulfilment will use its 100,000 sqft facility to store, process orders, provide a pick/pack service, modify and re-work some of the manufacturer’s popular brands, such as the Le Français range of baguettes, petit pains and ready-to-bake butter croissants.
The products will then be distributed nationally to a number of leading retail chains and wholesalers via Palletways’ nationwide (UK) pallet delivery network.
Garry Curtis, general manager at Palletways Fulfilment said: “We are thrilled to have been awarded a contract by Beauchamp Foods. We specialise in providing the total logistics solution covering collection, stock holding and delivery via our sophisticated delivery network. More than that, we are able to provide services tailored to the needs of our customers, allowing them to make savings, whilst still meeting the demands placed on their supply chains.”
The Palletways network is made up of some 100 plus member companies, which are all independent transport firms with local knowledge and expertise to provide a range of express distribution services including next day, economy and timed delivery options.
