Italian Job For UK Logistics Firm

Tenuta Marmorelle, whose range of premium quality Italian olive oil, pastas and antipasti products, are sold by high-end delicatessens and farm shops and, increasingly, are demanded by restaurants across the UK as cooking ingredients, have outsourced control of their UK supply chain to Berkshire-based Walker Logistics.

Walker will receive weekly deliveries of palletized product loads from Puglia, Italy which will be stored at the logistics specialist’s 200,000 sq ft ambient temperature, multi-user warehouse near Reading before being picked, packed and dispatched as required.

Initially, the contract is for B2B services only, but e-fulfillment work is expected to begin in due course – in-line with Tenuta Marmorelle’s market development strategy.
