Yodel has already announced a number of new client wins and renewals this year, most recently bolstering existing long term partnerships with new contracts. This follows a strong year of growth for Yodel with full-year volumes up 3%, and revenues up 3.4% in FY23.

This week, Yodel has announced a 2-year partnership with The Cornish Company, following a strong year of growth for the parcel carrier. The partnership will see Yodel help the business on its current trajectory as one of the fastest growing e-commerce companies in the UK by providing a quality delivery service to its customers. Yodel is well positioned to support with specialist food items, having over ten years of experience in delivering a wide range of specialist items including fresh food, pet food, alcohol and flowers. Yodel has also continued to make investment in its infrastructure with a £14m investment in its fleet last year and opening a new depot in Huyton, Merseyside earlier this year. The Cornish Company sells a wide variety of traditional Cornish food, cream teas and drinks. Its mission is to bring the Cornish community together by celebrating and championing local artisan food & drink producers. It aims to spread the Cornish message across the U.K. and eventually around the world. Its founders are two young entrepreneurs from the Cornwall area that both have a passion for local cuisine.

Mike Hancox, CEO of Yodel said: "After a successful FY23, we are excited to continue the trajectory of the business this year by adding new clients. We are also looking forward to working with such an innovative business, helping with its vision for the future and delivering their products with the same warmth as a Cornish kitchen. Aside from supporting The Cornish Company with deliveries, we also will be ‘pie’oritising’ further collaborations such as seasonal promotions.”

Tom Woodley, Managing Director of The Cornish Company said: “We are thrilled to announce the partnership between The Cornish Company and Yodel. Partnering with Yodel was a seamless transition, with the superb support of our Account Manager. We have already seen some brilliant benefits including exceptional customer service and exciting seasonal promotions successfully delivered. We look forward to this relationship with Yodel and many more of our exciting collaborations.”
