Torque gets cosy with fashion logistics deal
LOGISTICS firm Torque has tied into a contract with Scottish fashion brand Ness Clothing.
Torque is partnering with women’s fashion company Ness, which has more than 200 stockists, with 15 stores.
It will provide services to Ness from its Leeds distribution centre.
Torque turns over £60m. It employs 900 staff across sites in Leeds, Bradford and Wakefield.
Kenny Baillie, managing director, Ness Clothing said: “This year we increased the number of our stores from 10 to 15 and we plan to increase that further to between 30-40 stores over the next 5 years.
“To achieve this we required a logistics and warehousing partner who could meet our needs today and also meet our needs in the future.
“Despite Torque’s own growth they seem focused on making sure that their customers are giving the right level of care and attention and to build partnerships.
Stewart Firth, director at Torque, said: “We are excited to be partnering with Ness and be a part of their growth plans. It is a great brand and we are looking forward to working together as the company grows.”
