Two of retail horticulture’s leading transport providers, White Logistics & Storage Ltd and Bleach of Lavant, are pleased to announce they have joined forces under one group.
The merged group will operate a fleet of 190 vehicles, running from Bleach’s hub near Arundel and White’s extensive headquarters in Pershore. Including White’s sister company, RGF Logistics, the total group strength now exceeds 300 vehicles, making it one of the UK’s most capable and well-resourced logistics networks.
White’s 17-acre site in Pershore houses 172,000 sq ft of modern warehouse space, including 56,000 sq ft currently under construction. It also features a dedicated Danish trolley transhipment area, establishing it as a vital hub for horticultural logistics and national distribution.
Both companies will retain their individual identities, with Graeme White continuing as CEO of White Logistics and Gary Paget remaining Managing Director of Bleach.
This merger brings together two well-respected operators with deep roots in the horticultural supply chain. White Logistics is recognised for managing complex, time-sensitive loads and has already delivered over 25,000 plant trolleys this year. Bleach of Lavant is a trusted partner to many of the UK’s leading growers, including the Farplants group.
“This is a union of two like-minded businesses, both committed to quality, service, and long-term partnerships,” said Graeme White, CEO of White Logistics. “Together, we’ll offer broader coverage, more flexibility, and even greater value to our customers.”
Phil Rodrigues, Group CFO, added:
“This acquisition will give Bleach’s customers access to a highly scaled and technologically advanced logistics partner, supported by a dedicated customer service team.”
The transition will be carefully managed to ensure business as usual for all customers and suppliers.
