Supply chain solutions company CHEP has announced a new strategy for sustainable, long-term change.
The strategy involves empowering customers with tools and resources to create efficiencies and eliminate waste, according to director of strategy and marketing Justin Frank.
“This is the Supply Change, and together we can make it happen,” he said.
CHEP has designed and launched a new range of solutions to help companies in the consumer goods, manufacturing, fresh food, grocery and retail industries optimise their supply chains.
The first of the new solutions on offer are:
1. Platform solutions
According to CHEP, providing a consistent supply of standardised and reusable Platform Solutions locally and globally – including various pallets and Reusable Plastic Containers (RPCs) – helps eliminate waste and allows customers to significantly reduce their environmental footprint and cost of goods.
2. Value chain analysis
Working collaboratively, CHEP will look at movements throughout supply chains, identifying any causes of inefficiency, mapping out opportunities for improvement, and helping create value.
3. International solutions
CHEP will optimise sourcing and receiving processes, reducing handling and manual labour costs as product is moved through international supply chains more efficiently.
4. Store solutions
CHEP will help streamline merchandising and replenishment to improve consumer experience, satisfaction, and loyalty.
These solutions are designed to facilitate efficient store fulfillment, reduce packaging materials, and ultimately increase on shelf availability, brand presence, and sales volumes.
Phillip Austin, President of CHEP Asia Pacific, said each of the new solutions helps identify efficiencies, eliminate waste and improve the performance of customers’ supply chains.
