Kopparberg UK awards three year contract

From its new facility at Manton Wood, North Notts, DHL has created an integrated system solution for Kopparberg’s UK distribution, including transferring 8,000 pallets from its previous provider to ensure go-live targets were met. The move combines state-of-the-art technology with DHL’s deep sector expertise to provide a market-leading service. Already, the site is handling record volumes and, by employing the latest automation, has successfully navigated Kopparberg’s peak season.

Kopparberg UK head of supply chain John Greer, says: “We chose DHL because of its industry expertise and automation capabilities to help us optimise our distribution operations as our business grows.”

DHL’s Jim Hartshorne adds: “The advanced, intelligent automation at Manton Wood is perfectly positioned to deliver an excellent service to Kopparberg and offer smooth and secure peak management.”
