Cigarette manufacturer Philip Morris has awarded Clipper Logistics a contract to handle the UK storage and distribution of its brand portfolio.
This contract will see Clipper take on Philip Morris products in a phased transition over the coming months. It includes receipt of inbound goods from Philip Morris factories; secure, bonded warehousing; and national onward distribution via Clipper’s high security network.
Jerry Margolis, sales director at Philip Morris, said: “It was clear to us that Clipper have the ability to meet our demanding requirements. It is vital that we provide a secure, reliable supply chain to our customers and Clipper’s knowledge and experience made them our partner of choice.”
