Back Kuehne+Nagel to support Women's Tour and Tour of Britain

Kuehne+Nagel, one of the world’s leading logistics companies offering highly specialised solutions for worldwide industries, has been appointed as the Official Logistics Supplier to the upcoming Women’s Tour and Tour of Britain cycle races.

Both races will benefit from Kuehne+Nagel’s support for the transportation of key race infrastructure and vital equipment between host venues during the 14 days of competition.  Combined the two races will visit 26 venues and cover more than 2,100 kilometres of racing across England, Scotland and Wales.

Kuehne+Nagel were also chosen as the Official Event Logistics Providers of the Birmingham 2022 Commonwealth Games, taking place this summer.

Alex Walton, Kuehne+Nagel Business Development Manager, said: “Kuehne+Nagel are excited to partner with the Women’s Tour and Tour of Britain. Not only does this give us the opportunity to provide the series with a comprehensive and complex logistics solution but it also complements our core values and offers the chance for us to engage with a renowned sporting event.”

The Women’s Tour, the UK’s longest-running UCI Women’s WorldTour event, returns to its traditional early summer date in 2022. The six-stage race will take place between Monday 6 – Saturday 11 June, beginning in Colchester and finishing in Oxford city centre.

This year’s Tour of Britain (Sunday 4 – Sunday 11 September) will see over 100 of the world’s best riders race from Aberdeen to the Isle of Wight in what promises to be another memorable edition of this country’s flagship cycling event.

We are excited to be working with Kuehne+Nagel on this year’s events.  Our races are a complex logistical challenge and utilising the support and expertise of Kuehne+Nagel helps us to minimise that complexity significantly.
