Clipper Logistics PLC (LON:CLG) is set to provide e-fulfilment services to JD Sports Fashion Group PLC (LON:JD.).
Clipper has signed a letter of intent with JD Sports to provide e-fulfilment services from its distribution centre in Sherburn, near Leeds. The services will supplement JD Sports’ existing e-commerce operation.
The contract term is expected to be an initial minimum term of two years, and Clipper has reserved a minimum of 400,000 square feet of warehousing space at the site in order to provide the services.
It is likely that the contract will go live in the early part of the summer, Clipper said.
"JD Sports are a truly first-class, leading retailer, and we are extremely proud to be supporting their online operations. Clipper is very much the go-to provider of end-to-end services in the online retailing space," said Steve Parkin, the executive chairman of Clipper.
