Blakemore secures two-year extension deal with BP

Blakemore Wholesale Distribution has signed a two-year contract extension to supply 320 BP forecourt sites across the UK. The deal follows a six-year relationship between the two groups.

The renewal agreement will see the family-owned firm distribute branded food and drink products to the BP regional distribution centre in Lutterworth, which services 320 forecourt sites, including 250 M&S Simply Food outlets.

Blakemore Wholesale Distribution sales director, Raj Krishan said. “Blakemore Wholesale Distribution has developed a successful partnership with BP and I am delighted that we have been able to negotiate an even stronger working relationship between our two organisations.

“Over the past six years we have been able to demonstrate a high level of professionalism in supporting BP and have been able to create a valued, collaborative approach to business.

“We are committed to working closely with our colleagues across the Blakemore infrastructure, to provide bespoke delivered wholesale solutions in a way that our larger competitors are often unable to match.”

Blakemore Wholesale Distribution already services national contracts for accounts including Roadchef, Wickes, Primark and the House of Lords.
