  • Press Release (Trade) 25 October 2016 WINCANTON CEMENTS
    Press release (Trade) 25 October 2016 WINCANTON CEMENTS CONSTRUCTION EXPERTISE WITH CONTRACT WIN Logistics firm Wincanton has reinforced its position as a leading provider of supply chain solutions in the construction sector following the announcement of a new contract with the UK’s largest supplier of ready-mixed concrete, Hanson. The eight-year contract makes Wincanton the first 3PL provider to enter the ready-mixed concrete market. Under the terms of the contract, it is estimated that Hanson will require Wincanton to deliver in excess of half a million cubic metres of concrete each year. This will be fulfilled by a fleet of over 70 vehicles in Wincanton and Hanson liveries, which will be flexibly utilised to meet the demand. Wincanton’s entry into the ready-mixed concrete supply chain will provide additional capacity at a time when the industry’s long term prospects look positive. The government has already spoken of its plans to build a million new homes by 2020 and to invest in major infrastructure projects such as HS2. Wincanton is ideally placed to provide a flexible fleet of branded or Wincanton vehicles to support customers across the UK, extending the scope of the services provided to the construction industry. In addition, Wincanton’s experience and approach will ensure consistent standards, fulfil regulatory obligations and unlock efficiencies. Chris Fenton, Managing Director at Wincanton said: “Hanson is a leading industry player and we look forward to working with the whole team to deliver the highest standards of operational excellence and customer service. The company makes a great addition to our growing portfolio of clients in the construction industry.
