Hays Distribution were last week celebrating new retail contracts which will create a total of 750 jobs. Wincanton has won a distribution deal with highstreet retailer Woolworths to provide a Christmas relief operation for its 782 UK stores. Work starts this month out of Woolworths' warehouse in Winsford, Cheshire, with 65 dedicated vehicles and 127 trailers. There will be 250 new transport, warehouse and administration jobs.

Meanwhile, Hayes will be looking for 500 new staff, including drivers, after winning a £100m contract to supply BP's 1,000 petrol forecourt shops.

Sixty vehicles will service the contract from a multitemperature distribution centre in Milton Keynes and five regional distribution centres.
