Managing Director of Clipper, Tony Mannix said: “This new facility represents a major investment in the Teesside economy and proves our commitment to the region. We’ve created a world-class logistics supercentre which takes an industry leading approach to supply chain solutions. We have developed our relationship with Asda/George over several years and this latest move demonstrates the trust that exists between the two companies. The building itself can be customised for numerous supply chain scenarios which is an extension of our mission to match ability with agility.” “As well as providing ASDA/George with their bespoke solution, our new centre at Wynyard, will also offer other retailers – particularly those new to global sourcing and/or e-fulfilment, the opportunity to take advantage of deconsolidation best practice through a shared-user proposition without major capital investment.”

Leader of Stockton Council, Councillor Bob Cook, said: “We’re very pleased to have Clipper and Asda/George as our newest investors at Wynyard Park. There has been plenty of local interest in the site, which sits on one of our key transport arteries – the A19. The opportunities for local employment are extremely welcome and the decision to locate here demonstrates the excellent transport links and the strong, keen and highly skilled workforce we have in our region. The Tees Valley is very much open for business and this new venture is a ringing endorsement of that.”
