26th September 2007

Cert Octavian, the UK's leading provider of Premium Product Logistics services to the drinks sector, has won a significant contract with global premium brand builder, Maxxium.

Cert Octavian was appointed as one of Maxxium UK's nominated carriers, following a review of Maxxium's UK network. Cert Octavian will handle Maxxium's portfolio of premium brands, including Famous Grouse and Remy Martin.

Product will be shipped from Maxxium UK's main storage location in Motherwell, operated by its logistics partner TDG, and then forwarded on to complete the break-bulk and radial transport operation from Cert Octavian's Lutterworth depot. The Lutterworth depot is conveniently located for distributing to customers in the South of England.

Cert Octavian's Lutterworth facility is one of the company's thirteen warehouses across the UK, including the world's largest underground wine storage facility, which is run by the group's fine wine division, Octavian Vaults.

Steve Selby, Transport & Development Director, Cert Octavian, said: " Our expertise in the drinks logistics sector and attention and care towards all of our customers' brands makes us ideally placed to handle this break-bulk account. We are looking forward to working with TDG and Maxxium, and delivering its brands to locations across the South of England."
