GXO Logistics, a leading global pure-play contract logistics provider with around $9bn (£7.025bn) in revenue, has awarded recruitment and training group Staffline’s Recruitment GB the dedicated temporary labour supply to a further 14 distribution centres across the UK for several major High Street brands. 

This award grows the Staffline share of GXO labour supply business in the UK by an additional 40%.

Staffline has partnered with GXO Logistics for over 15 years. “This award is testament to the continuation of a fruitful strategic partnership and will result in the generation of significant revenue growth to the business,” a Staffline statement said. “GXO is a world leader in providing cutting-edge logistics solutions for multinational companies and blue-chip market leaders.”
 
In addition, Recruitment GB has been awarded contract renewals with Marks and Spencer and AM Fresh Group, the statement said.

Following an extensive formal tender process, the continuation of Staffline’s six-year strategic partnership with M&S is mainly at its 900,000sq ft, leading edge, e-commerce logistics site and its primary online clothing & home distribution centre in Castle Donington in the East Midlands.

Staffline and AM Fresh are jointly growing their existing partnership to a ‘sole supply agreement’ at its facilities in Peterborough and Alconbury, Cambridgeshire. Following an extensive review of its agency labour provision, AM Fresh awarded sole supply on a multi-year contract basis to Staffline.
 
Staffline CEO Albert Ellis said: “We have grown our operational reach with these hugely important customers, not only fulfilling a key strategic objective for the group, but further expanding our services with substantial and progressive employers of choice and is testament to our strong operational and strategic partnership approach to our valued customers.”
