Effective Solutions for Independent Retailer Logistics
While many manufacturers seek the bright lights of mass retailers for their product lines, other niche products may be better suited to smaller shipments to independent retailers.
At McKenna Logistics, we understand that there is more to logistics services than mass retail alone. Whether independent retailers supplement your sales or are your core target audience, McKenna can keep them happy and keep your distribution supply chain running smoothly.
Flexible Independent Retailer Logistics for Diverse Clients
Without
the stringent compliance standards of mass retail, there is more
flexibility in managing your distribution supply chain to independent
retailers.
Our Pick and Pack service allows you to customize
orders from large to small, no matter what combination of products is
required. Each retailer can request specific items in specific
quantities, according to their needs at any given time.
Using
small package or LTL shipping (Less Than Truckload), we can make even
your smallest deliveries timely and cost effective so that you make the
most of every sale. We will schedule delivery appointments with your
clients so they can count on their shipment arriving safely and on time.
McKenna
will collaborate with you to determine the best logistics solutions for
your business’s distribution supply chain when it comes to working with
independent retailers. This includes the most efficient storage and
packing methods so all of your products are easily accessible when your
customers need them.
Talk to us today about the best strategy for your independent retailer logistics.
