The collaboration between Bibby Distribution and Morrisons is one of five partnerships between retailers and 3PLs to be recognised as a contender for the Retail and E-Tail category. The awards are regarded as being one of the most trustworthy barometers of best practice in the supply chain across multiple industries. Together, Bibby Distribution and Morrisons have developed a Primary Consolidation Centre (PCC) model which has already reduced the major supermarket’s inventory by £6m without compromising on availability, with £20m expected to be taken out by 2015. Two centres, in Yeadon and Corby are operational supporting over 60 suppliers. The third site in Kent opens in August with a further two opening next year. Since the first PCC was opened in 2013, Bibby Distribution has already helped Morrisons to cut more than 800,000 food miles and save £70,000 in fuel, representing a 168 tonne reduction in carbon emissions. The network has also created an additional backhaul revenue stream through the Morrisons’ InMotion initiative. Ian Firth, Divisional Development Director, Bibby Distribution, says: “We’re delighted that our work has been continuously commended by the leading lights in retail and logistics. The PCC network has revolutionised operations for ourselves and Morrisons, and is driving real change in the retail sector. It’s delivering on long term strategic goals and fuelling growth.” The PCC initiative was a finalist for the Partnerships category at the Motor Transport Awards in July, and is currently shortlisted for the Retail Week Supply Chain awards, which will be held on 25 September. The overall winner of the European Supply Chain Excellence Retail and E-tail Award will be announced at a gala dinner on 5 November.
