Situation
Handling Inefficiencies in Packaging Process
→
Facing financial losses from incorrect box sizes.
→
Need for environmental sustainability in packaging.
→
Shipping over 1.2 million parcels annually.
Our Place, a modern direct-to-consumer kitchenware company founded in 2019, was facing significant challenges in their shipping and packaging processes. Shipping over 1.2 million parcels annually across four countries, they struggled with inefficient use of box sizes. This led to considerable financial and environmental sustainability issues. For example, using incorrect box sizes for just one week at a single warehouse could result in a $10,000 loss. If these inefficiencies persisted across all their warehouses for an entire year, potential losses could exceed $2 million. Our Place needed to find a solution that would enable them to optimize their packing and packaging strategy for each order to mitigate these losses and improve environmental outcomes.

To tackle the pressing issues, Our Place sought a solution that would provide flexibility and precision in box selection to improve cost and space optimization. The primary task was to find a reliable and efficient system that could be integrated with their existing ERP system. This system should have the capability to guide their warehouse packers in selecting the right packaging for each of their varied product assortments, which include cookware, dinnerware, and heavy appliances. It was crucial for the selected tool to have robust analytical capabilities that could support Our Place in regular reviews of carton usage and adapting inventory based on historical order volumes and patterns.
