Morrisons has signed a multi-million pound deal with Cable & Wireless to install a new telecoms and internet service across its 430 sites.
The deal - believed to be worth more than £10m - will connect Morrisons sites including stores, petrol stations, distribution centres and data centres to its corporate headquarters, through a managed IP virtual private network, running on Cable & Wireless's Multi-Service Platform.
"We wanted a supplier who demonstrated not only an understanding of our business, but also had innovative and flexible solutions to give us the tools to streamline our processes and operations," said Gary Barr, Morrisons IT director.
"We require proven, world-class systems to achieve our business requirements for profitable growth. We see investing in our network as an essential part of our growth plans, which over time will deliver real dividends," he added.
