While our commercial storage, stock management and courier service solutions are used by a wide array of clients, one industry group we’re especially popular with is retailers in the Haywards Heath area. They range from small, “out of the garage” one-person operations to large, high turnover companies that need a partner they can rely upon year-round, in all sorts of different situations. Some may simply choose to make use of our same day delivery service, ensuring customers have a positive experience and get their goods ASAP. Others choose our secure premises to handle high value storage, for peace of mind. Others choose our pick and pack service to simplify product shipment, so they can focus on other aspects of running a successful retail business.
Below, for retailers in the Haywards Heath area who are still weighing up what a partner like DR Logistics Ltd can bring to the table, we’ve looked to list some benefits that our services provide. These services can be combined to create a comprehensive logistics package which includes commercial storage, stock management and a same day delivery service, delivering serious value and helping your business reach the next level.
1. Streamlined Supply Chain – Some businesses have fairly complex supply chains; they might order in materials or products from multiple sources, then have separate storage locations, a separate courier service they rely upon, etc. By bringing as many of these elements together under roof as possible, you minimise the amount of separate players you have to constantly keep track of and contact. Haywards Heath clients should consider how DR Logistics Ltd’s commercial storage, pick and pack, and courier services take three potentially separate aspects of a supply chain and melds them together for simplicity, efficiency and cost-effectiveness.
2. Fast, Reliable Delivery – One thing that can make or break the reputation of a Haywards Heath retailer is how quickly and reliably they can get their products into customers’ hands. And these days, this has become all the more competitive, with businesses promising ultra-speedy delivery to try and get an edge on other names within their particular sub-section of the retail industry. DR Logistics Ltd’s mantra is “When Tomorrow’s Too Late” – and this really explains our approach in those three simple words. We offer a same day delivery service and go above and beyond to honour delivery guarantees, so that you never get those dreaded online reviews, eg: “it took a whole week for my purchase to show up”.
3. Careful Stock Management – A dedicated logistics company will use advanced software to ensure that inventory / stock management is meticulously accurate. This ensures you can quickly query stock levels and take steps to renew stock that’s running low. It also means accurate books that simplify essential tasks like keeping your books and paying taxes.
4. Cost Efficiency – Another drawback of using a complicated supply chain in which things like high value storage, pick and pack or a same day delivery service are offered by two or three separate companies – or certain aspects are handled under your roof by employees you have to pay, train and develop, etc. – is that costs can get pretty expensive pretty quickly. By using a logistics company which handles all these different essentials in-house, you can significantly improve your margins.
