Added Value services
"The one stop shop"
To help ease the relentless time pressures within this industry, we can offer a ‘one stop shop’ when it comes to Print Logistics so that you don’t waste any time in transportation between the finishing house and the end Distribution Company.
Why not take advantage of:
The logistics team – who will personally manage the day-to-day activities on the account.
Note and label generation – to save valuable time, these can be e-mailed (as per Data preparation and database development) so that the labels are produced in the order required by the client or local depot before being electronically sorted into depot order or ready for onward shipment to the client within their catchment area.
Consolidation - for ease we can consolidate packed items from numerous locations and keep them to a single consignment.
Collate and Pack/POS kitting – we can collect raw print from suppliers, collate it as required and supply the packaging to accommodate the items during transportation to the end user. Just tell us when you need it, and consider it done.
We can also handle complex pick/pack collation and kitting jobs such as individual information packs, leaflets/posters/brochures as well as full displays of PoS material
Customer inventory on the packing note – This enables the receiving store to check off after he/she has signed for the correct number of items.
Storage and call off – we offer customer driven solutions for order processing and inventory management. We can provide storage for ongoing jobs in progress, although we don’t offer long term storage. Neither do we store or do in-house collation without there being distribution associated with it.
Pre-despatch storage – We can store items/products ready for onward distribution to coincide with the launch date of a campaign.
Help lines - In order to provide the total service and aftercare for clients, dependant on time and cost implications strategically offer customer help desks for the store chains.
Data preparation and database development - We can accept address data in a wide variety of formats, either on disk, via ISDN or email and can merge or de-dupe data files if required.
Labelling services – If your product to be distributed is generic we can supply all the address labels.
