HUMBROL, a worldwide leader in paints, models and toys, has chosen a Hampshire company to deal with its storage and distribution service.
Hull-based Humbrol, which has a product portfolio including famous brands like Airfix and Plasticine, plumped for Import Services near Southampton.
Import Services employs 100 people at its office and massive warehouse at Hedge End, as well as storage sites at Southampton docks and nearby Nursling.
Simon Dowd, group supply chain manager for Humbrol, said: "We are seeing the benefits already in terms of reduced delivery lead-times to our customers, a reduction in distribution costs and full cost control of our operations and logistics."
