Clothing Manufacturer/Retailer

We have been working with this large clothing retailer since 2009 in various areas of its supply chain, including contract optimization projects that significantly reduced transportation costs in the following areas:

• LTL (Less-Than-Truckload): We negotiated a 40% reduction on this multimillion-dollar budget through a formal bid process.
• Small Parcel: We negotiated a 12% reduction on this $8M segment of their business.
• Retail Store Replenishment: We assisted our client in the development of a weekly retail replenishment program, and managed the entire bid process, which resulted in a 28% savings.
• Customized Returns Program: We saw the opportunity to create efficiencies for our client by developing a customized “shipment returns program” that lowered costs by over 10% and dramatically improved our client’s visibility to the process. This solution enabled our client to issue credits to their customers within 48 hours as compared to 4+ weeks previously.
