Bleckmann has added H&M Group as a client at its Crick site near Northampton, supporting logistics for several H&M Group brands from the UK warehouse after an early August go-live.
Bleckmann, which provides supply chain management for fashion and lifestyle brands, said H&M Group has officially become part of operations at its Crick site, near Northampton in the East Midlands' Golden Triangle. The go-live took place in early August. The 3PL partner is handling logistics operations for various H&M Group brands from the Crick warehouse.
Bleckmann said investments are being made to support the operation. Work is underway on an advanced AutoStore system, which is intended to further enhance efficiency, capacity and flexibility. Both partners held a celebration event at the warehouse, attended by staff from H&M Logistics and Bleckmann, including Bleckmann CEO Gökalp Çak.
Reinardt van Oel, Chief Operations Officer for Belgium and the United Kingdom, said expanding operations and the client portfolio is essential to meeting growing demand from existing and new clients, and welcomed the collaboration. Attendees toured the warehouse and met the operational team.
