We helped River Island in its desire to grow its online enterprise through tighter control of River Island’s logistical processes. Heavily involved in the implementation of covid secure practices including an onsite testing facility that enabled River Islands people to remain safe during the pandemic. We have followed-on from this success by identifying and implementing a superb opportunity for this client in form of a bespoke 24/7 cardboard recycling system. River Island immediately saw reduced costs by 22% and this enabled the iconic clothing brand increase productivity from this workflow by 40%. All of this was achieved at no additional cost to this future-proofed client. Today, we manage just over 2m sq ft of property at their UK distribution centre.
