W.S. Dennison Announced as JYSK Distribution Partner for Ireland

W.S. Dennison, has been awarded Irish logistics partner for international retail chain, JYSK, ahead of its launch in Ireland.

The Danish homeware retailer is set to launch 15 stores across Ireland, with the first opening in Naas, Co Kildare, in April this year.  Further stores in Drogheda, Navan and Portlaoise are also confirmed to be operational before the end of summer.

W.S. Dennison will provide a combination of warehousing and logistics.  Goods will be delivered directly from JYSK’s 700,000 sqft Danish distribution centre to one of W.S. Dennison’s strategically-located warehouses in Antrim (Northern Ireland) or Limerick (Republic of Ireland) for onward delivery throughout Ireland serving all Irish JYSK customers that choose to order online.

W.S. Dennison will be providing its “two-man, white glove” home delivery service to JYSK.ie customers, which includes delivery to room of choice, unpacking and positioning the item in the room.  All packaging will be removed and disposed of in line with Irish waste regulations.

The company’s dedicated teams will handle all consolidation, home deliveries and reverse logistics on behalf of JYSK, including pre-arranged delivery slots, timed delivery windows and continuous customer communication throughout by its delivery agents.  W.S. Dennison’s impressive first-time delivery success rate of 99.25% is an obvious attraction for JYSK.

W.S. Dennison, which celebrates 40 years in business this year, has established a reputation for reliability in the Irish marketplace and is also one of the few companies that can accommodate deliveries throughout the whole Island of Ireland.  In particular, the company is widely regarded as the ‘Final Mile’ specialist in Ireland by offering full traceability and accountability from manufacturer/retailer to the end-user because it manages everything in-house, with no part of the supply chain sub-contracted.

W.S. Dennison’s track record in competently servicing the Irish region, as well as its robust Brexit strategy, made the operator a strong candidate when tendering for the contract.

Head of Retail for JYSK in Ireland Roni Tuominen said, “We’re delighted to be able to offer a full suite of delivery options for Irish customers and our partnership with W.S Dennison for all online orders is an exciting one.  As a company they have a lot of experience in this area which gives us great confidence in their ability to deliver an exceptionally high service”.

W.S. Dennison’s MD, William Dennison, added, “We’re proud to be selected to support a brand that has become synonymous within the furniture sector on a global scale. We are delighted to welcome JYSK to Ireland and are looking forward to growing and developing this relationship”.

Because W.S. Dennison handles only furniture, its entire supply chain is designed solely to facilitate the transportation and storage of delicate and high value items.  The new JYSK contract will add to the haulier’s existing volumes of moving 3,700 pieces of furniture and completing 500 home deliveries throughout Ireland per week.

Profile

FOCUSED ON FURNITURE

 

W.S. Dennison Ltd is the leading furniture storage and logistics company in Ireland.

We specialise in providing furniture logistics services to manufacturers, importers, wholesalers and international and multinational retailers.  Traditionally, our focus was on transporting goods from retailers and manufacturers to stores, but later diversified into home delivery.  Having established an excellent reputation with our customers in the logistics sector, we realised that our expertise could also be applied to domestic and commercial removals.

Founded in 1979, W.S. Dennison remains family-owned and operated, but with the support of a team of 30+ dedicated and highly trained personnel.  We pride ourselves on providing a unique and personalised service.

At W.S. Dennison, we are not your typical Haulier.  Because all we do is furniture (and some white goods), our entire supply chain is set up solely to facilitate the transportation and storage of delicate and high value furniture items.

Operating from two strategically-located and purpose-built warehouses in Antrim (Northern Ireland) and Limerick (Republic of Ireland), which offer a combined 50,000 sq ft capacity, has allowed us to establish a reputation for reliability in the Irish marketplace because we are one of the few companies that can accommodate deliveries throughout the whole Island of Ireland.

Our large vehicle fleet is bespoke to the particular demands of the furniture sector and loading and unloading of goods is, in the main, carried out manually.  We do not use any form of mechanical aide and provide two-man delivery on every job.  All of this minimises the risk of contamination or damage of goods in our care.  Because we use only our own in-house team of highly trained and experienced warehouse operatives and drivers, we can offer full traceability and accountability, from manufacturer/retailer collection to end-user delivery.  All delivery operatives are fully uniformed in branded clothing, and all vehicles are fully liveried in the striking W.S. Dennison colours.

We offer collection from anywhere in the UK and delivery to retail outlets or end-users in every corner of Ireland.  Our full range of services for retail delivery include full loads, part loads, ‘de-stuffing’ / reconsolidating, collections/returns and stock control, but we also specialise in two-man, ‘white glove’ home deliveries.

Since our beginnings in 1979, we have grown to become the leading and most well-respected furniture storage and logistics companies in Ireland, but remaining family-run, we pride ourselves on the level of precision, reliability and consistency provided in our service.

Our services include:

  • Furniture and white goods logistics and storage
  • Retail deliveries
  • Two-man home deliveries
  • Storage and warehousing
  • Residential and commercial removals and storage
