Speaking about the recognition, Tony said: “I am humbled to be honoured with the Chairman’s Award. We have worked hard to position Clipper at the forefront of innovation. In retail, the speed of change can be daunting, and the complex issues retailers face mean that they need an agile, multi-channel logistics partner who can help keep them ahead of the retail curve, whilst driving performance. I’m proud that Clipper has become that partner for so many key players in the industry.
We are now at the forefront of e-fulfilment, having created rapid and integrated returns solution Boomerang, and Clicklink, a retail-focused Click & Collect Solution.
I am proud of the role I have played, and the recognition Clipper has received as a result. I look forward to continuing this success.”
