Wiltshire logistics giant Wincanton has reported “robust” recent trading amid “challenging” economic conditions.
In a trading update for the third quarter, bosses at the supply chain manager, which is headquartered in Chippenham, said it was on track to make a pre-tax profit of around £62m for the current financial year.
The board pointed to the “resilience” of its diverse customer base in the face of economic, political and labour market “volatility and headwinds”, which it said had impacted its top-line growth and underlying cost base this year.
