Dimensions and Co-op team up to support the Salvation Army

The Co-op uniform

After a recent rebrand of uniform, Co-op chose the Salvation Army as a charity partner so surplus clothing could be distributed to people who could make good use of it.

With each new rollout of uniform, Co-op ensures its demand is well supported with stock to cover all eventualities in changes to requirements and to ensure colleagues have what they need, when they need it. With the most recent launch of the pioneer brand, Co-op identified a surplus amount of stock as needing a new home. This included new high quality garments such as shirts, trousers, skirts and polo shirts.

The Co-op team worked with Dimensions’ account manager Keily Read to make the donation possible.

Ms Read said: “Working with our logistics team we began the process of picking and de-tabbing the uniforms. We worked alongside the Salvation Army, through our relationship with the Co-op to make sure the stock we chose met the needs of the Salvation Army.”

After months of ground work, 84 boxes of clothing valued at almost £20,000 has been distributed around the country to those in need. The Salvation Army has distributed the uniform on a large scale and supports causes close to both Co-op and Dimensions.
