Whistl secures seven year deal with Aegon

Whistl, the second largest postal operator in the UK, has secured an unprecedented seven year deal with Edinburgh based Aegon, to collect, sort and transport 10 million items of mail a year.

The contract, thought to be the longest in the history of the deregulated postal market, joins a number of high profile client contract renewals including Inchinnan headquartered M&Co Stores, one of the largest privately-owned fashion retailers in the UK.

Whistl also has a significant presence in the public sector providing mail services for 26 Scottish local authorities and 16 health boards.  The Scottish sorting depot for Whistl relocated to Tannochside Business Park, Uddingston, in August last year and handles over two million items of mail a week.

Nick Wells CEO, Whistl said: “Whistl has gone from strength to strength in Scotland since we opened our first depot ten years ago.  We moved last year to a new site three times the size as the one in Coatbridge and the securing of an unprecedented seven year deal with a key client reflects on the professionalism of our team and trust the client has in us to deliver a high quality service. ”
