BLOC & VOW sign new three-year enhanced agreement

BLOC and VOW Wholesale are pleased to announce the signing of a new three-year agreement, reinforcing a partnership that spans more than 30 years and that delivers enhanced value and growth opportunities for BLOC members.

This agreement provides an overall improvement to volume and growth rebate programmes specifically to support members within the BLOC community together with preferential delivery rates, underpinned by dedicated account management and a focus on maintaining stability of supply.

We are delighted to have agreed this new deal giving members continuity and reassurance in the challenging market we’re in. Our partnership, built over three decades, has always been based on trust, collaboration and a shared commitment to support members and our mutual supply partners. This agreement delivers both volume and growth rebate enhancements but more importantly, supported by a true partnership approach. We’re confident that VOW’s continued focus and investment in services that support the long-term goals for BLOC members will help them thrive now and into the future.

Adrian Butler, Managing Director of VOW UK, adds: “We are also delighted to have signed this 3-year agreement with BLOC. We have enjoyed a fantastic partnership over many years and this agreement not only reflects that but also enables, BLOC, it’s members and VOW, to really make a step change in how we grow further.”

BLOC is also pleased to announce VOW Wholesale as a headline sponsors for the group’s first National Conference being held on 18 June at The Crowne Plaza, Stratford-Upon-Avon – another opportunity for members to meet with the VOW team and hear about their plans for the future.
