We carried out a consultancy project for a large company in the food and beverage sector, focused on serving the entire Latin American market. In addition to having a complex and inefficient logistics network, the company's production was divided into several factories and the manufacturing lines had high levels of idleness.
We reviewed and optimized the company's Latam manufacturing and transfer network, concentrating production in fewer operations and lines. The new network resulted in total costs 10% lower compared to the baseline, with a potential savings of almost 200 million dollars in 10 years.
