Ebit has run many packaging projects for clients including product packaging, transit packaging and warehouse consumables in both food and non-food environments. Our experience and insight means we have strong expertise in identifying appropriate supply solutions both locally and across the globe. Our approach usually extends beyond sourcing the packaging itself, working to deliver solutions that improve supply chain efficiency.
Client Overview
Ebit worked with a small but rapidly growing casual dining chain with a focus on food-to-go. Prior to the tender the client was suffering from a slow supply chain that was leading to out-of-stocks in its outlets and poor turn-around times for re-ordering.
Our Approach
Packaging projects we’ve been involved with include product packaging, transit packaging and warehouse consumables in both food and non-food environments. Our experience and insight means we have strong expertise in identifying appropriate supply solutions both locally and across the globe. Our approach extends beyond sourcing to supply chain efficiency and robust SLAs.
We worked with the client to define a future specification and tender process.
