Under the contract, Gist’s transport operation collects around 2.75 million cases of fresh vegetables each year from Manor Fresh’s UK sites in Lincolnshire, Chipping Campden, Inverness and Arbroath.

Gist not only offers extensive network coverage but also RFID cross-dock capability.

Michael Scott, commercial manager at Manor Fresh said: “Gist is providing Manor Fresh with robust yet flexible logistics solutions that are tailored to suit our needs. Gist has listened to us and allowed us the flexibility that we need to provide our customers with the very highest quality products.”

Martin Gwynn, Gist chief executive said: “Gist has built a leadership position in the fresh produce supply chain, and we are very pleased to be able to deliver Manor Fresh a solution to their logistics operations that has been tailored to their business needs.”
