Logistics

Berdal sees logistics throughout the chain as an essential component to increase its sustainability, make the chain more efficient and reduce costs in the chain. To this end, we are a proactive partner of buyers, category managers and supply chain managers. In order to optimise deliveries from Berdal as a manufacturer right down to the shop floor. We do this by making optimal use of the space in our trucks and providing support in E-commerce logistics to the end user.

PACKAGING UNITS

We strive for optimal packaging units. Berdal determines this for each pallet based on the warehouse facilities of its partners and the ideal cross-docking quantities. An example of this is improving the pallet quantities from production so that we can deliver double-steak into our trucks. This allows us to make the best use of the space in the trucks. This results in a 20% more efficient trip and 20% less CO2 emissions.

Less transport movement

Berdal reduces transport movements by seeking suppliers closer to the distribution centre and carrying out more operations in its own production fully automated. As a result, fewer transport movements are needed before a product is ready. For the entire chain, we are looking at what support Berdal can offer in their logistics to the end-user. In order to further reduce the amount of transport movements.
