In the fall of this year, Oxford University Press is moving its U.S. warehouse and fulfillment operations to Ingram Distribution Solutions, Ingram's third-party logistics division. As part of the shift, Oxford University Press will close its Cary, N.C., warehouse.
Phil Davies, Oxford University Press group supply chain and inventory director, said, "This is a great opportunity for Oxford University Press to leverage the deep experience and scale of Ingram's supply chain services by building on our long and successful relationship, and we are delighted with the service and flexibility Ingram offers to meet our customers' needs."
Sabrina McCarthy, Ingram Publisher Services' v-p and general manager, said, "This is a significant and strategic move for Ingram. As one of the most prestigious and one of the longest standing university presses in the world, we are honored that OUP has chosen to partner with us. This partnership integrates our print on demand services, digital services, and warehousing and logistics services to maximize OUP's ability to efficiently reach readers in North America."
