Continuous improvement

WAREHOUSE INEFFICIENCIES 📣👎 What happens when you plug a sales person into a production line? Not a huge amount of productivity in the case of Joe Cooper! But look at that smile on his face. Not sure the rest of the team were quite so happy with the small backlog he was creating though. This was a great live example of how a very small change can cause a significant impact to your total output 📉. We had a tour of the Europa Worldwide Group Corby warehouse yesterday with Warehouse Operations Manager Andy Kay, and it's clear to see how small improvements that are made on a daily basis can have a much larger impact on the output levels for our customers 📈. As a 3PL, this constant search for efficiency is critical to building strong and lasting relationships with our customers. If you're managing your own warehouse currently, are you looking at any potential bottle necks that could cause inefficiencies? Drop me a message if you want to come and see how the 'Big Logistics Company of the year 2023 🏆' do things, we'd love to show you around. Also, an added bonus is that you might get to meet the smiling Joe Cooper too 😁 #efficientlogistics #greateroutput #3pl
