Support for Inventory Overflow from Forward Buys & Volume-Discount Purchases
Your challenge: Balancing the competitive advantages of opportunistic buys or volume discounts against constraints of your distribution network.
Our solution: Bypass your DC network, while maintaining control and visibility, with Kuehne + Nagel's import-diversion service.
We deliver custom-designed long- or short-term solutions that give you maximum flexibility on either coast. Our DCs manage unloading, detailing and sortation, then sequence product direct to your own DCs or stores.
We currently provide multiple retailers with diversion support of large bulky products (lawn and garden, camping, games, toys, trim and tree) and ad merchandise (electronics).
Features include:
- Providing our unique Internet-enabled tool to your buyers and replenishment staff giving them visibility to on-hand warehouse inventory anywhere within the Kuehne + Nagel network.
- Maintaining strict inventory accuracy in a high-velocity environment while shipping direct to your DCs or stores.
- Ability to manage ad or blitz merchandise and in-store sales dates
