BBJ STORY
BBJ Linen is a leading provider of fine linens
for banquets, meetings and weddings throughout
the country.
| The
challenge |
| · |
BBJ Linen has limited storage space
for their corrugated cartons it uses to ship its
product; they could hold no more than 1-2 days
worth of inventory. |
| · |
With their current vendor BBJ Linen was required
to issue a purchase order every time they took
in cartons causing an avalanche of daily paperwork. |
| · |
The cartons they were purchasing were over engineered
and priced as such. |
| · |
Once the cartons were packed, BBJ was dealing
with crushing and tearing during shipment and storage. |
| The
Solution |
| · |
Packaging Design developed a unique
inventory release system in a warehouse closely
located to BBJ Linen’s facility. |
| · |
BBJ Linen now receives boxes on a daily basis. |
| · |
BBJ Linen only issues a purchase order twice
a year to alleviate the paperwork nightmare. |
| · |
Packaging Design’s designers engineered
new cartons in line with industry standards thus
dramatically lowering their overall packaging costs. |
| · |
Finally, Packaging Design sent in a team of experts
to demonstrate the proper way to pack and stack
their boxes to reduce crushing and tearing during
storage. |
