The Lead Time Problem

What used to take 1 week now takes 3-4 weeks and there a few reasons why:

COVID-19 – Due to covid, a lot of paper mills, corrugators and packaging manufacturers have had to scale down production. They cannot have as many people working in their plants and they have even closed a shift or two.

Supply and Demand – Although business is not what it was prior to Covid, there is a great deal of demand for boxes / poly bags & sheets / paper / plastic products due to the increase in e-commerce packaging which leads to the next explanation.

Amazon – Amazon accounts for approximately 8% of all corrugated use in North America. That is an astounding percentage if you consider all of the packaging products used for food, beer, alcohol, clothing, etc.

How a Stock & Release Program Can Help

Peace of Mind – With your custom products in our warehouse, you can get whatever amount you need within 24 hours.

Save Your Space – Boxes take up a lot of space, let them sit on our floor instead of yours. This is allows you to keep space for the products that make you money.

Improve Cash Flow – Instead of paying for all the boxes at once, you can pay based on when you receive a shipment.

Optimize Stocking Levels – Avoid delays and free staff from spending valuable resources managing a multitude of parts with our VMI.
