Sorting solutions swiftly

Swift Group has a workforce of more than 1050 employees and a turnover in excess of £270m. It recently celebrated its 50th anniversary and in 2018 was awarded the ‘UK Private Business of the Year’.

The new contract utilises Brammer Buck & Hickman’s Invend service featuring 31 industrial vending machines across Swift’s two large sites at Mexborough and Cottingham in Yorkshire. With one site spanning seven acres, the Invend solution will deliver products line side resulting in a reduction in downtime and an increase in operational productivity. 

The Invend solution will be serviced from Brammer Buck & Hickman’s local branches and will be stocked with a variety of Swift’s most used PPE products including safety glasses, ear plugs, masking tape and gloves. 

Stacey Burns, Implementation Manager for Vendor Managed Services comments: “For us, this new contract is a real testament as to what we can offer at Brammer Buck & Hickman. Through Invend and our Vendor Managed Services, this is a chance to really show the quality of our support and the effort we put in to make sure all our customers are operating as effectively as they can.”

Invend by Brammer Buck & Hickman is just one out of three Vendor Managed Services which is used alongside Insite and Inscan to consolidate cost, reduce product consumption and improve productivity. Invend provides 24/7 availability of industrial consumables. Unlike conventional vending machines, with an industrial vending machine, the data from the inventory management system provides greater traceability of consumables and accountability by employees.
