Shared user win for XPO
XPO has launched a first-time partnership with Christy England, a luxury bed and bath linens brand.
MANCHESTER-BASED Christy has awarded XPO a multi-year contract for end-to-end management of its supply chain for all channels in the UK and Ireland.
Mike Holland, director of product and supply chain for Christy, said, “At Christy, we have always held ourselves to the highest standards of quality and service, and we prioritised these same attributes in the competitive tendering of our supply chain. Our choice of XPO has given us a cohesive, multichannel solution that delivers immediate benefits and will evolve along with our needs.”
The two companies collaborated on designing a customised supply chain solution that integrates inbound product transport from multiple manufacturing locations, storage at XPO’s shared-user warehouse in Stoke-on-Trent, Staffordshire, and outbound transport of product orders to retail stores and outlets in the UK and Ireland, as well as the retailer’s e-commerce operations and niche delivery points.
