Fancy dress supplier Smiffys has awarded a contract to Clipper as part of a plan to establish a comprehensive logistics network across Europe.
Clipper will handle inbound stock management, storage, fulfilment and returns throughout Europe for Smiffys, which has 5,000 stockist globally.
Clipper already runs an operation at Kempen in Germany for Smiffys. Ross Johnson, head of operations at Smiffys said: “We have been working collaboratively with Clipper to meet the needs of our growing customer base in Europe. By holding stock locally, this project will enable us to improve delivery times and stock availability. We are delighted to add this facility to our operations in Sydney and Dallas as well as our existing UK footprint.”
Clipper chief executive Tony Mannix said: “We have extensive experience in a range of services and operations across Europe for a number of leading retailers, providing us with the necessary skills and capabilities to provide the reliable, quality service that Smiffys require.”
