Award winning response handling and fulfilment house, Granby Marketing Services, has been appointed by the UK Office of the European Parliament to handle the storage and distribution of publications, promotional items and exhibition materials under a framework contract for up to four years.
Granby will be solely responsible for the receipt, storage, stock management, order processing picking, packing and distribution of European Parliament stock in the UK. Orders will be primarily placed on line and all activity will be reported in real time via Granby's customer management platform, SCOPE, enabling instant access to ordering facilities and stock availability data to European Parliament officers based both in London and Brussels.
Chris Robinson, Sales and Marketing Director at Granby said, "This is a significant win for Granby which adds to our portfolio of prestigious public sector clients, and which will reinforce our reputation for delivering the very highest quality of service to the most exacting standards.
Adding, "This major win is a result of Granby's proven fulfilment expertise and
the functionality provided by the SCOPe system used by clients including the Information Commissioner's Office, Learning Skills Council and Transport for London."
Daniel Ractliffe, Head of Public Affairs, UK Office of the European Parliament, commented: "Working with a partner such as Granby who is developing a reputation in public sector, high volume response handling, is an exciting prospect and one which I'm confident will be valuable to the work undertaken by our UK Office."
The account was won from incumbent agency CDL Distribution.
