SC Johnson
Logistics Strategy
Davies & Robson began working for SC Johnson Wax (brands include: Glade, Mr Soapy and Brillo) in 1991. Studies have included benchmarking of transport and warehousing to determine the most cost effective logistics solution, distribution strategy and purchasing/tendering strategy.
A good example of the support provided was the outsourcing of Johnson’s Wax’s European transport operation.
The demand by major multiples for lower stock holding and increase delivery frequency required a review of the distribution operation to ensure it was operating at optimum efficiency. We evaluated the market conditions and managed an Invitation to Tender to determine an optimum delivery strategy that would also help it to maintain control of its primary supply chain.
The success of the project resulted in a positive long-term relationship with Johnson Wax’s transport provider – a real partnership demonstrated through trust, communication, mutual respect and joint initiative.
