Chippenham-based Wincanton has signed a contract with Total for the third time.

Contracts between the oil and gas company and Wincanton, which provides supply chain solutions, go back to 2007.

Under the new three-year agreement, Wincanton will continue to manage Total’s maintenance warehouse at Lindsey Oil Refinery in North Lincolnshire.

Wincanton will continue to have responsibility for receiving deliveries, kit preparation, project control, stock audit, inspection functions and onsite chemical and gas deliveries.

Chris Kingshott, Wincanton’s managing director for manufacturing, said: “Like us Total is a business synonymous with extremely high levels of health and safety.

“What’s more, its success worldwide is built upon a culture of continuous improvement and astute cost management, goals very much aligned with our own and a major factor in our two businesses’ long and successful partnership.”
