F &B Logistics

Food and beverage companies face many unique supply chain challenges. These include complex inventory control and allocation issues, increasingly challenging regulatory/product recall requirements, RFID, slow growth markets that necessitate continuous cost reduction, high transportation costs, and both plant-direct and "mixing centre" distribution models. Food and Beverage logistics PKT company are being pressured from multiple sides of the value chain. Perhaps the most prominent pressure results from the continuing shift in the balance of power within the industry from manufacturers to retailers. The on-going consolidation among grocery and other retail channels is concentrating more and more market share and power in fewer retail chains, increasing their leverage to demand price, service and supply chain technology terms to their food and beverage suppliers. Retail influence, changing demand, consumer satisfaction, hygienic workplace, increasing competition, rising costs and diminishing returns all play a part in the challenge to F&B Logistic service providers. These pressures translate into shorter supply lead times, more complex delivery profiles, greater workforce flexibility and access to up to date order status information.
