Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

• The predicted deal between Wj Sims and Heron Distribution for most of Sims' Sainsbury's work was completed last week (CM 9-15 December).

The contract finally brings Sainsbury's into Heron's portfolio: Heron tendered for Sainsbury's work from the Hoddesdon, Herts site five years ago.

Heron takes over Sims' Hoddesdon site, which Sims has used as a distribution base for Sainsburys for 30 years. The deal includes 90 vehicles, 130 trailers, 110 drivers and 40 other employees.

Sims turnover has grown from £2.8m to around .f.:9m over the past decade. The company has depots at Croydon, Heathrow and Felixstowe.
