26 May 2023/Categories: Logistics & Supply Chain, Membership, Corporate News


Online fulfilment and supply chain solutions specialist, Walker Logistics, has renewed its sponsorship agreement with Gloucestershire County Cricket Club (CCC) and will once again be the front-of-shirt sponsor for Gloucestershire’s Talent Pathway teams for the new cricket season.

Established to identify the most talented local cricketers at a young age, Gloucestershire’s Talent Pathway delivers professional coaching to budding players with the aim of turning them into first class batters and bowlers.

all Gloucestershire CCC Talent Pathway teams - from the under 10s to the under 18s, as well as the club’s Academy side – will take to the field wearing shirts that prominently display the Walker logo.

Walker Logistics’ Sales & Marketing Director, Charlie Walker, commented:

 “We are delighted to continue our close relationship with Gloucestershire Cricket Club and proud to once again be supporting young cricketers as the front-of-shirt sponsor for Gloucestershire’s Talent Pathway teams.”

Charlie – a keen cricketer himself - added: “Supporting sport is something that Walker Logistics likes to do and partnering with a club that does so much for young people within its community is a huge source of pride for us.”

Mark Thorburn, Head of Talent Pathway at Gloucestershire Cricket Club, said: 

“We are very pleased to continue our special partnership with Walker Logistics for a second season. Thanks to the backing that we receive from companies such as Walker Logistics, we can nurture the next generation of Gloucestershire cricketing talent.”

Berkshire-based Walker Logistics  operates from a 250,000 sq ft multi-client facility close to junction14 of the M4 motorway and is currently in the process of adding a 135,000 sq ft state-of-the-art extension to the existing site to help keep pace with the growing demand for its range of services. Construction of the multi-million-pound development is projected to be complete by the end of 2023.
