"Beyond the traditional wholesale model, we see great development in the "direct to consumer" model. Data shows a growth in demand for D2C products, especially coffee, cosmetics,  nappies, perfumes, personal care, pet food, and vitamins, minerals, & supplements. This implies that FMCG companies must consider refreshing their legacy logistics network to cope with this new consumer demand."

 

Emmanuel Bonnet, Senior Vice President Vertical Market - FMCG, GEODIS

Frequently asked questions

To understand the FMCG logistics meaning , you need to first understand what FMCG is. This acronym stands for goods that are sold rapidly, and at a low cost, including beverages, packaged food, toiletries, cleaning products & personal care products. And FMCG logistics involves all the steps to get these products quickly across the supply chain to the shoppers, via different channels.

In a fast-paced market like FMCG, it can sometimes be a struggle to keep pace with the logistics demand & delight customers. Here are some of the top logistics challenges that your business is likely to face: 

  • Inability to maintain sufficient inventory to meet fluctuating demand
  • Struggle to stay compliant with industry regulations
  • Lack of visibility of the inventory & order status
  • Lack of system & data integration to optimize the full supply chain

Some of the KPIs that you should track when it comes to fast moving customer goods logistics are:

  • Delivered On-Time & In-Full 
  • On-Shelf Availability
  • Supply Chain Costs
  • Carrying Cost of Inventory
  • Average Time to Sell
  • Out-of-Stock Rate 

FMCG logistics can be optimized by choosing the right third-party logistics (3PL) provider. For best results outsource your supply chain management, warehousing & distribution, inventory management, order fulfillment, and delivery optimization to a 3PL like GEODIS.
