Supermarket retailer Asda has renewed its long-term reverse logistics contract with XPO Logistics. The logistics company will continue to manage nine of Asda’s service centres.
Jon Parry, logistics vice president for ASDA, said: “The renewal of our contract with XPO Logistics reflects our determination to be environmentally sustainable across our entire business. The strong working relationship between ASDA and XPO has enabled us to deploy significant waste innovations and achieve cost efficiencies. We are delighted to extend this award-winning collaboration.”
“We’re proud of our longstanding relationship with ASDA and the numerous sustainability initiatives we have put in place at the service centers – for example, rainwater harvesting and intelligent lighting,” said Gavin Williams, business unit director-consumer and reverse logistics for XPO. “ASDA has recognized our commitment to continuous improvement by honouring our team with the ASDA Supply Chain Collaboration award for the past two years.”
