Eddie Stobart looses job to Midlands Haulier

I wonder if anyone can throw any light on the Nestle contract loss by Stobart in the Midlands,as well as transport Stobart has lost the Bardon warehouse work as I understand Nestle are having a new one built.

XPO at the new East Midlands Gateway. East Midland Airport according to the local MP right honourable minister Twit

This was announced long before xpo started building the warehouse

Always love a member that asks serious questions.
Trying to get the knowledge…

Shame you couldn’t spell ‘loses’.

Doesn’t matter though does it?

You do realise that they won’t actually be employing any staff? Just a few Oompah Loompas to sit in an office directing operations.

it’s been on the cards for at least the last three years that bardon has been closing, xpo (who run the contract at nestle waters buxton) came in with a cheaper quote than stobart too win the contract, stobart will still be pulling for nestle from all there other sites like the rest of the contracted hauliers do and even out of the new warehouse at Leicester

XPO haven`t run Buxton water since this time last year, it was taken in house.
