Stamford woman leads Amazon's eco poppy delivery initiative

A woman from Stamford has been helping to lead a eco initiative with internet retailer Amazon to deliver poppies to sellers.

Eloise Cheales, a program manager with Amazon, worked from her home to manage the logistics and distribution arrangements for ensuring the Royal British Legion’s new plastic-free poppies were delivered around Manchester using the retailer’s new electric cargo bikes.

Manchester is one of two cities where Amazon has e-cargo bikes. Eloise teamed up with colleagues to raise money for the RBL Poppy Appeal.
