Freight Sourcing

Achieve cost savings of over 10%
Studies by the Technical University of Berlin have shown that logistics costs account for 27.6% of total costs in the retail sector. In many companies, transport costs are often pushed into the background by external freight forwarders or parcel and courier services. The transport logistics should work, but costs are neglected. Lack of personnel in controlling is also a reason for this.
