Under the new contract, Wincanton will manage Britvic’s national transport operations and oversee the company’s deliveries and stock movements across the UK, handling over 100,000 deliveries a year.

“Through this new contract, we will work closely with Britvic to develop a best-in-class supply chain, deploying our scale and expertise in supply chain optimisation to deliver increased operational flexibility and visibility. We look forward to being part of Britvic’s continued success.”
