Frequently asked questions

FMCG logistics is the transport, storage, distribution, and management of consumer-packaged goods throughout the supply chain. Consumer-packaged goods are typically products that are sold rapidly and at a low cost. These products include packaged food, beverages, toiletries, personal care products, cleaning products, and similar. FMCG logistics services specialize in getting these goods to customers in a fast and efficient way, while maximizing quality and choice. 

In a fast-paced market like FMCG, it can be difficult to meet demand and delight customers. Some of the main logistics challenges include:

 

  • Providing a high-quality of logistics services and products across different channels and marketplaces
  • Maintaining enough inventory to manage consumer demand, especially during peak seasons or promotions
  • Staying compliant with stringent regulations, particularly in the food and beverage industry
  • Making decisions based on visibility into product flows, inventories, and order fulfillment
  • Integrating systems and data between clients and logistics providers

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 the best results, outsource your supply chain management, warehousing and distribution, inventory management, order fulfillment, and delivery optimization to a 3PL like GEODIS.
