The supply chain can be the strongest or the weakest link in any business operation.\u00a0When it comes to managing\u00a0a complex system that involves many\u00a0contributors, getting it right is not always easy.\u00a0That is\u00a0why it\u2019s vital to work with\u00a0a company that\u00a0understands your challenges and can provide tailored solutions to overcome them. Here we look at three questions you should ask when selecting a supply chain partner to ensure you get the support you need\u00a0to optimize efficiency,\u00a0productivity,\u00a0and safety.\u00a0<\/p>

Can\u00a0your partner\u00a0cover the entire\u00a0supply chain?\u00a0<\/h2>

Working with multiple partners across the chain adds unnecessary complexity to the process, increasing potential risks,\u00a0and adding to the costs.\u00a0For your operation to run on schedule, each link needs to be as strong as the next. If one fails, the problems can quickly escalate in the next stage, resulting in widespread disruption and potentially irreversible\u00a0damage to your reputation.\u00a0However, with little visibility over the\u00a0activities of the other players in the chain,\u00a0individual partners have limited capacity to prevent or react to\u00a0any\u00a0issues.\u00a0That is\u00a0why\u00a0it is\u00a0best to look for a partner with end-to-end capability.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>

Tosca,\u00a0a global leader in reusable packaging solutions,\u00a0has you covered, from the first mile to the last<\/a>, giving you better control over key aspects of your operation. It is\u00a0the only pooler who can service the entire supply chain.\u00a0With just one team to work with for sales, service, and managing the transportation network,\u00a0you can\u00a0simplify the way you\u00a0run\u00a0your business.\u00a0This simplicity\u00a0eliminates any\u00a0uncertainty over cooperation between partners: with one partner covering the entire network,\u00a0there are no handovers that could compromise efficiency or safety. You will also benefit from optimal traceability<\/a> over the\u00a0whole\u00a0supply chain, not just individual parts of it. Better visibility gives you more control\u00a0over your entire supply chain.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>

Does your partner\u00a0provide consultancy support?\u00a0<\/strong>\u00a0<\/h2>

There is no one-choice-fits-all answer when it comes to achieving a high-performing supply chain.\u00a0That is\u00a0why you need to work with a partner who listens to you, understands your industry, and has the knowledge and experience to design the solutions that help you succeed. Tosca has over 100 years of combined experience managing large supply chains and the financial scalability needed to grow and bring new innovations to the market. As your business\u00a0needs evolve,\u00a0you need flexibility when it comes to\u00a0new products and services. Tosca offers four different service models,\u00a0–\u00a0pooling<\/a>,\u00a0renting<\/a>,\u00a0wash\u00a0and\u00a0service<\/a>, and purchasing<\/a>\u00a0–\u00a0for upstream and downstream customers, making it easy to find the option that can best support your\u00a0requirements.\u00a0With extensive in-house production and R&D capabilities,\u00a0Tosca\u00a0has the resources required to build customized solutions tailored to the specific\u00a0challenges\u00a0of your industry, products, and logistics network.\u00a0<\/p>

Can\u00a0your supply chain partner\u00a0help you improve productivity?\u00a0<\/strong>\u00a0<\/h2>

The supply chain feeds your operation, be it from farm to fork or warehouse to store, contributing\u00a0to the overall success of it.\u00a0That is\u00a0why it is vital that the\u00a0products\u00a0you use, from crates\u00a0and pallets\u00a0to\u00a0dollies and\u00a0displays, are designed with productivity in mind. However,\u00a0this can mean different things\u00a0at\u00a0various\u00a0stages of the logistics\u00a0journey. You need a partner that can tick not\u00a0just one but all the boxes.\u00a0<\/p>

With an in-house R&D department<\/a>, Tosca has the knowledge and capacity to custom-build the solutions that help you\u00a0optimize performance at each stage of the journey.\u00a0Regardless, if you need the products to be hygienic, easy to use, quick to clean, stackable, foldable, light, durable, or\u00a0all\u00a0the above, Tosca is\u00a0best placed\u00a0to help you drive\u00a0new efficiency into every aspect of your supply chain.\u00a0Great product design, however, is just the start. To enhance performance, you need to make sure the products are where you need them, when you need them. Tosca\u2019s\u00a0global\u00a0network of 55+ wash centers and\u00a0its track and trace capabilities,\u00a0enable\u00a0you to monitor the crates, pallets,\u00a0and\u00a0containers\u00a0as they travel through the network.\u00a0In addition, the data gathered by the\u00a0system\u00a0can prove a valuable asset in improving efficiency across the system, highlighting potential issues and areas where small changes can\u00a0result in significant gains in productivity\u00a0and efficiency.\u00a0<\/p>

With the acquisition of\u00a0Polymer Logistics and\u00a0Contraload\u00a0NV,\u00a0Tosca\u00a0is one stronger partner\u00a0helping you\u00a0build a higher performing supply chain.\u00a0Dedicated to solving\u00a0your\u00a0challenges, it combines a wealth of experience\u00a0in\u00a0supply chain excellence\u00a0and offers\u00a0a global capability\u00a0with\u00a0a local presence to help you take your\u00a0operation\u00a0to the next level.\u00a0To find out more, visit:\u00a0www.toscaltd.com\/pl<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p> ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
