We have already completed a £13.2 million fit-out of the 750,000 sq m distribution center and between now and February 2008, we will create 330 new specialist warehouse and administration positions."
"We are ideally placed to support MFI in delivering great customer service, by ensuring customers receive their products direct to their door, within a guaranteed period of time," added Matthew Phelps, "DHL is a world leader in the provision of logistics and business solutions - and has specifically adapted its solution to MFI's needs, one of the reasons MFI has elected to work with us.
We have more than met their expectations so far, and I am confident we will continue to do so in the months ahead as we set about helping MFI meet their key corporate challenges of 2008 and beyond."
As Chris Pavlosky, Chief Operating Officer of MFI, explains, the company recently relaunched itself after its 200-strong retail store business was acquired by specialist venture capitalist, Merchant Equity Partners.
"We are naturally very pleased to be working with DHL during a very demanding and exciting period in our history. With DHL's support, we plan to reassert the company's position in its traditional retail markets.
"The Thorne distribution center is integral to ensuring that our customer is the focus of our supply chain as we recognize that delivering outstanding customer service is the key to success. We will be utilizing the proven expertise of DHL to achieve this goal."
