Ethical governance

Everyone who works for and with Clipper Logistics plc has the right to work in an environment that is free from harm and to do so freely for their own purpose.

Clipper has partnered with Intertek plc to create an Ethical Trading audit that is based on the SMETA audit standards as well as being benchmarked against the Ethical Trading Initiative (ETI) standards.

Sites' contingent labour providers and onsite support functions (e.g. security, cleaning and catering companies) are audited yearly with stringent follow-up actions.

This provides significant confidence to senior management and the

Responding to a request from Government, mobilisation of the solution took 4 days

200,000 SQ. FT.

including setting up a full warehouse management system for an initial 200,000 sq. ft. of warehousing space

7 DAYS

We additionally created an online solution, working with eBay to support aspects of the primary care network and we had that operation up and running in 7 days

Supporting

the NHS

In the 'Clipper Way', demonstrating our agility, Clipper was able to mobilise an initial 200,000 sq. ft. solution within 4 days. We are currently utilising our logistics capabilities at several locations, thereby easing the pressure on the NHS Supply Chain network.

The aim was to work with our NHS partner and establish a new supply chain for NHS Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) products.

We are not only delivering to NHS Hospital Trusts, we have also developed an online eBay solution to support healthcare providers, GP surgeries, care homes and others in the primary care network across the country.

E-commerce mega trends and post-COVID-19 acceleration

COVID-19: accelerated e-commerce growth

Online orders increased significantly from March 2020 onwards

21% year-on-year increase in e-commerce sales in fashion, apparel and accessories globally. Bricks-and-mortarsaw online orders increase from 52% to 76% compared with the same period last year (The Future of Ecommerce, April 2020).

Dramatic change in online shopping habits over the COVID-19 lockdown period Number of consumers who say they've increased their online shopping rising to 36% (Mintel research conducted 16-23April).

Catalyst for a new, more omni-channel focused future

42% of respondents to a survey conducted by Retail SaaS provider Qudini are more likely to use click and collect services.

Retailers without online presence threatened

42.6% of UK shoppers are spending more than usual online at the moment and 61% of those plan to keep doing so after the pandemic (Global Data's survey May 2020).

locations served by robots.

Use of robots has increased putaway and pick rates, which in turn has increased productivity.

Use of automation to speed up processing

We partnered with Superdry to develop automation solutions to speed up the processing of e-commerce returns, making them available for sale again quickly. We looked at the flexibility robots could offer us in an automated goods-to-person system. The pilot project for handling e-commerce returns was conducted in 2018. After the success of that project, we moved on with planning expansion.

Over 80,000 sq. ft. of warehouse space at our Burton facility is being set out with 1,000 transportable pick-wall modules and 12 pick-to-light stations to facilitate the adoption of the robots. The site is also being prepared for the robot fleet by positioning QR codes on the floor for the robots to follow.

The solution will not only be able to process all existing e-commerce returns but will now also be able to process returns from store. Once live, this will cater for around 50% of the site's outbound activity. The expansion will take us from six robots and 92 modules to 46 robots and 1,000 modules.

This will allow over 32,000 locations to be serviced by robots.

Our plan is then to further expand the solution to include menswear next year. This will involve additional automation projects, redesign of the mezzanine floors as forward reserve storage to enable fast replenishment and reduced handling of goods to the High Productivity Racking area.

  • Cash generated from operations increased by £38.5 million. IFRS 16 resulted in an improvement of £34.9 million - excluding this there was a £3.6 million improvement YoY.
  • Net interest paid increased by £1.0 million largely as a result of increased interest costs on hire purchase and finance lease agreements following significant capital expenditure in the year ended 30 April 2019, and to a lesser extent increased interest costs on the commercial vehicles stocking lines.
  • Corporation tax of £3.5 million was paid in the year ended 30 April 2020 (2019: £4.3 million).
  • Included within investing activities is £2.9 million of cash outflow relating to the business combination.
  • 2020 saw overall lower levels of capex and therefore less asset funding was required; £5.7 million in 2020 down from £18.7 million in the prior year.
  • Net cashflows from financing activities were £46.5 million which included £34.9 million impact as a result of IFRS 16.
