XPO Logistics has announced a new partnership with Christy England, a retail brand known for luxury bedding and bath products. The two companies have collaborated on a customized supply chain solution that will manage end-to-end logistics for all channels in the UK and Ireland.
Under the multi-year contract, XPO will handle the inbound transport of products from multiple manufacturing locations, store them at its shared-user warehouse in Stoke-on-Trent, Staffordshire, and transport them to Christy's retail stores, outlets, and e-commerce operations throughout the UK and Ireland. XPO’s approach includes niche delivery points for added customer convenience.
Dan Myers, XPO’s managing director for the UK and Ireland, emphasized the importance of the partnership for Christy: “Christy is an iconic brand synonymous with quality and over 170 years of history. Working together in partnership, this new solution will broaden and further enhance Christy’s retail options for customers in all channels, from e-comm to the brick and mortar experience.”
XPO's shared-user warehouse provides the flexibility and efficiency needed to effectively manage inventory and logistics. The company uses state-of-the-art warehouse management technology to ensure accurate inventory control and last-mile delivery of orders to Christy's customers.
