Gold Bond, an independent mattress manufacturer, said it has teamed with a new logistics resource to enable it to delivery “small batch” orders to retailers quickly and efficiently.
The new program offers a solution to independent dealers who place smaller orders and need to receive the product more quickly than waiting for traditional route-based delivery.
“We have many smaller independent dealers who place an order for 10 or 20 pieces at a time. They can’t afford to hold inventory for a variety of reasons and also cannot wait for a scheduled delivery from a truck on a longer route. This new option enables us to have a dedicated smaller van or truck do the delivery,” said Bob Naboicheck.
“This is a very unique service in our industry. Most manufacturers don’t want to handle small batches, but we thrive in this space. We are very dedicated to providing the best service possible to smaller independent dealers,” he added.
The new freight source offers a variety of vehicles to enable this service. Delivery is quicker and with less damage to products because the trucks are dedicated to the individual customers. Product is not put on pallets nor transferred to a number of trucks along the delivery route, which can cause product damage.
