By consolidated its skills and expert knowledge of supply chain logistics and eCommerce trading, Antalis Packaging has formed a dedicated 3PL and eCommerce team.
Drawing on its wealth of experience and expertise from across the business, Antalis Packaging has created a flexible team of experts to bring their understanding of all aspects of third party supply management, eCommerce trading and logistics, to deliver a more tailored and responsive service.
The aim of the new 3PL and eCommerce team is to work closely with customers to review their operations and make recommendations that will enable them to achieve maximum operational and cost efficiencies. This ranges from the management of materials and service costs, waste control, market intelligence and innovative solutions for the evolving omni-channel retailing sector, as well as stock holding, inventory, bespoke packaging design, machinery and full automation.
Andrew Smedley, divisional manager at explained, ‘In the logistics and packaging supply chain business, reputation is everything. Therefore for third party providers and the brands they represent, it’s vital they deliver the highest possible standards in terms of customer experience. By consolidating our considerable expertise and knowledge, we can respond quickly to any challenge and deploy resources that best suit the customer’s objectives, be that to reduce costs, speed up packaging operations, streamline processes or simply improve inventory management, without compromising standards and customer service.’
The new team will draw on additional resources including the company’s Packaging Design Centre, where packaging engineers and technologists can offer advice and design bespoke products and prototypes as well as undertake materials audits and performance testing on behalf of the customer.
