The Challenge
An industrial tool manufacturer saw accelerating sales from its retail partners. But, the company didn’t have the distribution capacity or warehouse labor necessary to meet increasing demand. They needed a flexible solution to deliver to their largest national retail partners.
The manufacturer needed to move fast to meet demand and fulfill the retail partner’s SLAs. The goal: Create a flexible distribution solution to replenish the retail partner’s nationwide distribution centers and meet SLAs requiring 99% accuracy for two-day packing and shipping.
The Solution
The manufacturer leveraged Flexible Warehousing Infrastructure to expand high-volume distribution beyond its existing network. And it rapidly onboarded a qualified Flexe Logistics Network warehouse operator. Intuitive technology enabled high volume distribution—fast.
Results
With Flexe, the manufacturer scaled distribution to meet demand fast—without investing CapEx on new fixed facilities. It leveraged port-adjacent warehouse space to seamlessly distribute products across the US. The company shipped nearly two million units per month across 700+ SKUs for its largest retail partner. All while meeting customer requirements for 99% OTIF accuracy.
