Bleckmann, a logistics service provider, is set to assume control of the logistics operations for Superdry at ‘The Duke’ site in Burton on Trent.
The transition will involve approximately 170 employees, who will transfer to Bleckmann under the same terms and conditions they are presently working under.
No redundancies are planned as part of this transition. Rather, Bleckmann expects to attract new customers to this warehouse, creating more jobs in the region.
“At the European mainland Superdry has been a client since 2007 and we are proud that we also will do their logistics in the United Kingdom,” said Reinardt van Oel, Chief Operations Officer Belgium and UK at Bleckmann.
Founder and Chief Executive Officer at Superdry, Julian Dunkerton adds: “I am delighted that Bleckmann has now become our Global Logistics provider. This is a partnership that goes from strength to strength.”
