Packaged products arranged for a distributor-facing export program.

How Lue & Perez supported the project

  • Aligned multiple supplier pickup windows into one export-ready shipment
  • Improved palletization to reduce freight per unit and simplify receiving
  • Coordinated shelf-life windows so the load landed in a more commercially usable condition

Business result

  • 18% reduction in freight per unit through better palletization
  • Better synchronized shelf-life windows before import clearance
  • A more repeatable FCL process for ongoing replenishment
