Wincanton, a leading provider of supply chain services in the UK & Ireland, today announces it has been awarded a multi-million five-year contract by supermarket group Morrisons to operate its first ever dedicated UK convenience distribution centre in London. The contract is for combined warehouse and transport operations, supported by Wincanton’s system platform.
Morrisons recently announced plans to open 20 new convenience stores across the UK by the end of 2012 following successful trials of its “M Local” format in Leeds, Manchester and Birmingham. The new 100,000 sq ft cross-dock distribution centre will open in Feltham early next year.
