Logistics giant The Widdowson Group has won a contract to pack two Christmas ranges for Boots.
The high-street retailer has called on the freight and distribution group’s contract packing division, which is based in Leicester, to pack a haircare gift range and a toiletries gift range in time for the festive season.
The exact brand names of the products involved and the value of the contract have not been made public.
However, the deal is being touted as a success by Widdowson as it had been unsuccessful in winning work from Nottingham-based Boots at a first attempt several years ago.
Widdowson operations manager Clarke Robinson said that since then, the business had invested "heavily" in developing its contract packing facility.
"As a result we asked Boots to assess our suitability again and this time we’re delighted to have been given the go-ahead.
"It’s a tremendous reward for our hard work and we are looking forward to extending the relationship in the months ahead."
Widdowson’s contract packing business offers services including hand assembly, promotional pack design and reverse logistics as well as a mobile contract packing service that will pack product at a client’s site.
