The Perfume Shop to use shared transport network
GXO LOGISTICS has partnered with The Perfume Shop to provide weekly high street deliveries to more than 200 stores through its shared transport network, helping reduce environmental impact, urban congestion and transportation costs.
The Perfume Shop managing director Gill Smith, says: “It is important for us to have a logistics partner that can offer regular deliveries to our stores while still being environmentally efficient. Partnering with GXO meant we found a solution that avoided empty space in vehicles and kept our operation efficient and cost effective. Since working alongside GXO, we have been able to maintain our excellent customer experience whilst improving our impact on the environment.”
GXO’s shared transport fleet combines deliveries for multiple retailers helping reduce the number of vehicles driving in and out of already busy city centres. On average, GXO will operate vehicles with deliveries from five different customers, stopping at eight to 10 locations throughout the journey, making them more efficient than a dedicated delivery service.
