Why OIA?

LOGISTICSProblem — Although paying very competitive transportation rates, a client needed to reduce

their overall supply chain costs.

Solution — OIA engineers studied their packaging process and determined the structure dimensions and specifi cations of the packaging could be re-designed to increase load factors by 23%. This would also improve the client’s sustainability via source reduction as well as a reduction in product damage, all while enabling a greater re-use of containers once they arrived at the distribution center. The combined effect signifi cantly reduced the client’s overall supply chain costs.

GLOBAL SOURCINGProblem — A client was importing product from 10 off-shore locations. Their branding was inconsistent, and the poor quality of

the shipping containers prevented re-use of the boxes requiring expensive re-sorting and replacement.

Solution — Through our network of global supply partners, OIA produced the packaging in the same region as the product, reducing costs and lead times. Our design optimization specifi ed the packaging and quality manage-ment insured adherence, thus eliminating re-sorting and replacement box costs. As a result, the client’s carbon footprint was signifi cantly reduced, and their sustainability objectives were achieved.

With more than 30 offi ces across fi ve continents, OIA Global has a dedicated network of best-in-class partners to produce packaging materials securely and cost-effectively. While our quality management process ensures all products are designed and manufactured to your specifi cations, our scalable sourcing platform enables us to match need by geography and/or speed to market.

At the retail level, packaging is everything. OIA Global’s team of experts will determine your product’s optimal retail effectiveness, then develop a program to design and engineer the packaging utilizing lean manufacturing principles. During transit, your products are shipped damage-free and cost effectively by implementing a transportation solution that combines multi-modal shipping and time-defi nite delivery.

With more than 25 years of experience providing global logistics solutions, OIA Global maximizes cube utilization and packaging re-use to lower costs and reduce your carbon footprint. Now, with better load factors and greater asset utilization, you have true control of your network through a single source as well as increased speed to market that together reduces your total supply chain costs.

OIA Global not only provides logistics solutions that are client specifi c and scalable to your needs, we strategically align packaging and distribu-tion to reduce costs by specifying value-added customization that’s closer to demand. With more than one million square feet of warehouse space and a full range of services, we have the resources to interface with your fulfi llment operations and tailor SKUs to specifi c retail channels.

Packaging, as a key part of the supply chain process, contains a multitude of variables

that must be optimized and managed. These

include graphics and structural presentation that

generate sales, sourcing materials from a myriad

of global locations, economy and effi ciency during

transport, quality assurance, environmental and

human compliance and, fi nally, performance.

OIA Global’s packaging solutions help manage

all of these complexities. With more than 30

offi ces across fi ve continents, we have the critical

mass and leverage among our 40+ trading

partners to cost effectively manufacture and

transport your products; and designing material-

neutral packaging concepts within an asset-lite

business model provides us with greater

objectivity during the sourcing process to meet

your critical business objectives. An important

competitive advantage in today’s retail

environment is speed to market. With our ability

to integrate packaging into a total logistics

solution, OIA Global can optimize your supply

chain wherever you operate worldwide.

Packaging products for success.Solutions: up and down the supply chain

Best practices design – Designs are based on state-of-the-art manufacturing principles providing you with a consistent, low-cost package that can be produced defect-free through our global footprint of best-in-class manufacturing partners.

Material-neutral model – Retail and transit packaging design is driven by source reduction and sustainability. Objective selection of materials reduces cost and increases sales effectiveness.

RETAIL & TRANSPORT PACKAGING Problem — A client’s retail sales were declining, their POP colors and structure were inconsistent and their delivered costs to retail

were too high.

Solution — Following a retail analysis, OIA established color matching guidelines and designed a modular display to improve product visibility and shopping functionality. To increase speed to market and reduce transportation costs, the display was produced in the same region as the product. This also reduced kitting and fulfi llment costs. Overall, the solution provided cost savings of over 30%, and a 10% increase in sales.

WAREHOUSE & DISTRIBUTIONProblem — A major footwear brand in the U.S. wanted to manufacture a

product segment in Asia, but because of tax and duty issues they had to license production to other parties. Further, the brand did not have staffi ng

in Asia to support order management and distribution to their customers.

Solution — The brand partnered with OIA, which became the licensee for this product segment manufactured in Shanghai and Ho Chi Minh City.

OIA then licensed production to a third party while concurrently developing an order management system, distribution network, and expanding its staff to

support the brand and its customers.
