Straight to the bank after 25m contract

Environmental products group, Straight, has won a place on a framework contract with procurement specialist YPO, worth 25m pounds.

It means Straight's products, like home compost kits and recycling containers, can be bought in bulk by YPO and sold at lower prices to local councils.

Jonathan Straight, Chief Executive of Straight (the clue's in the name) said: "we believe that this is testament to the quality of the products and service that we provide to our customers."
