Partnership between Manchester Airport and GXO Logistics extended

08 November 2022/Categories: Freight Forwarding, Logistics & Supply Chain, Operations Management


GXO Logistics, Inc., the pure-play contract logistics provider, announced that it is expanding its established partnership with Manchester Airport. Since 2006, GXO has been providing logistics services to retail, food and beverage vendors at Manchester airport, helping them to deliver to millions of passengers annually.

“We’re proud to renew our long-standing contract with Manchester Airport,” said Gavin Williams, GXO Managing Director, UK and Ireland. “Our team provides highly flexible and responsive services that form an integral part of the airport infrastructure and leverages our extensive industry knowledge and experience with many other airside customers. We look forward to supporting Manchester Airport’s ambitious growth strategy.”

Over the past 16 years, GXO has helped Manchester Airport scale up in line with increasing demand and today the business supports more than 70 retailers and food and beverage vendors, delivering a wide range of products — including luxury goods, electronics and fresh and frozen foods — to restaurants and stores. On average, GXO receives, screens and delivers over a million items a year, with goods processed on the day of receipt.

As part of the original mandate, GXO operates a 29,000-square-foot screening and consolidation centre. Up to 80 inbound deliveries are received daily and consolidated onto GXO’s ‘last-mile’ delivery fleet. This reduces vehicle movements around the airport by as much as 75%, helping to reduce congestion, pollution from CO2 and the risk of road accidents.
