PARKDEAN RESORTS

Cayton Bay Holiday Park, Scarborough

The benefits of this collaborative approach are significant:“ I can think of innovations, our supply chain can think of innovations and our internal teams can think of innovations. They might not be the same, but bringing those ideas together really cements the ideas, develops the strategy to move forward and brings that essential stakeholder buy-in as well,” Amey adds.

Vertical integration strategy Parkdean Resorts vertically integrated its supply chain by acquiring transport partner, Hanson. This decision addressed specific market limitations in the holiday park sector.

Amey adds:“ We saw the need in the market. There’ s a limited supply chain, particularly in our industry, in specific category areas because it’ s a relatively small market in some instances, especially when it comes to transporting holiday homes.

“ There were two main transport partners in the industry, a lot of small ones, but nobody that could really service Parkdean, who is the biggest operator.”

Eight-pillar ESG strategy Parkdean has developed a comprehensive ESG framework built around eight priorities, ranging from energy, waste and water reduction, to protecting wildlife on its parks, to supporting the wellbeing of its people. The procurement team plays a crucial role in implementing these priorities across the supply chain.
