Famous for their tomato ketchup, baked beans and range of sauces, this is the first time that Heinz has entrusted a single logistics provider with exclusive management of its ocean freight.
Through the deal they hope to achieve a reduced supply chain cost, create a simpler structure and improve their supply chain visibility.
CEVA design and implement supply chain solutions for large and medium-sized companies, one of its key areas of development is its ocean freight service, transporting large, long-lead time items cost-effectively.
They work in partnership with many UK food manufacturers including John West, the UK canned fish brand, who earlier this month renewed their three-year partnership with CEVA for £13m.
