in service level metrics
Across industries, many distribution centers are under increasing pressure to adapt to dynamic, complex market conditions that challenge the performance of logistics processes. Yet, external factors – such as shorter delivery times, highly variable order volumes, and regulatory demands including taxes and customs – often make reliable long-term planning difficult.
Additionally, low levels of automation and digitalization limit the adaptability of many distribution centers, while high inventory levels can cause logistical bottlenecks due to constrained storage capacity.
With EFESO, companies develop innovative, future-ready approaches to strengthen this critical link in their distribution networks. Across the strategy, implementation, and operation phases, we support clients with proven best practices—from defining the specific role of distribution centers in value creation, to executing strategies that maximize output, improve cost-efficiency, and accelerate performance.
*Examples: New building: optimizations as part of new planning compared to previous planning; existing distribution center: optimization of existing systems.
Activate the potential of your distribution centers with our team and prepare them for future challenges. Our insight identifies initial questions and fields of action that need to be considered when developing a customer and service-oriented strategy for distribution centers.
