Christian Salvesen has been awarded a £600,000 UK distribution contract with UK kitchen sink manufacturer, Carron Phoenix.
Christian Salvesen will distribute up to 30,000 pallets per year of Carron Phoenix’s granite, ceramic and stainless steel kitchen sinks, from its plant in Falkirk, Scotland to stockists throughout the UK.
Using Salvesen’s shared-user network of 13 depots, it replaces weekly deliveries on dedicated vehicles. The contract is supported by Salvesen’s SHARPNet track and trace, enabling Carron Phoenix and their customers to monitor deliveries online.
John MacDougall, Operations Manager of Carron Phoenix commented: “Christian Salvesen offered Carron Phoenix the best fit solution for its business needs now and going forwards. In Christian Salvesen, we have confidence in a longstanding relationship, which will work to the benefit of Christian Salvesen and Carron Phoenix.”
The contract consolidates Christian Salvesen’s growing presence in the DIY and home sector. In 2003, Christian Salvesen was awarded a contract to distribute Mereway’s rigid kitchens, alongside other kitchen suppliers’ products, to John Lewis Partnerships’ customers
