A European manufacturer of natural supplement products was looking to expand and standardize its B2C and B2B presence in Europe and the United States.
With increasing demand, the customer needed a logistics partner capable of managing inventory, optimizing fulfillment, and ensuring timely deliveries. It also required coordination between European and United States operations while meeting end consumers’ expectations for fast and reliable fulfillment.
JAS designed and implemented a comprehensive contract logistics solution to optimize the customer’s supply chain.
After manufacturing, the bulk product is stored at JAS United Kingdom and transported by road to JAS Germany, where warehousing, inventory management, and value-added services (VAS) such as repacking, kitting, and sample management are performed for the EU market.
Additional shipments from JAS United Kingdom are sent via ocean freight to the United States, where JAS’s Memphis facility manages inbound, storage, inventory control, pick and pack, VAS, and last-mile fulfillment. JAS’s strategic locations in Munich and Memphis ensure efficient distribution across both regions. Through the JAS SmartHub platform, the customer tracked inventory and shipments in real-time, while ensuring full Food and Drug Administration (FDA) compliance for the United States market.
By integrating warehousing, transportation, and fulfillment services, JAS provided a streamlined strategy that minimized supply chain risks and improved speed to market.
By leveraging JAS’s global contract logistics capabilities, the customer achieved:
- 10% reduction in ocean freight costs
- 15% improved on-time delivery performance in the United States
- Centralized visibility over its supply chain operations through JAS SmartHub
- Enhanced and full compliance with FDA requirements
