How Deconsolidation Ensures Efficient Delivery
Improve Your Delivery Services like A Pro with Deconsolidation
Established businesses have made their mark in the market and among consumers with fast deliveries, leading to stiff competition with other small and mid-sized businesses (SMBs). SMBs must struggle to manage their inventory and improve freight shipping and logistics to compete effectively and attain high customer satisfaction.
Fortunately, you can achieve higher growth by using deconsolidation. Businesses that don’t have large shipments opt for deconsolidation to streamline their logistics effectively. It helps them reduce costs and grow profit margins.
What is Deconsolidation?
Deconsolidation refers to activities in the supply chain, where the business separates Less Than Container Load (LCL) shipments for preparation for fast final delivery. All their LCL shipments will first require consolidation in a container at the source, then deconsolidation at the destination. Deconsolidation processes occur at a Container Freight Station (CFS).
How It Ensures Efficient Delivery
Reduced Shipping Costs
As a shipper, you only pay for booking the space used to store your cargo, contrary to FCL shipment, where you will pay for the entire container load. It saves time and cost in the final distribution of goods.
Faster Speed-To-Market
You want to reach the end-user as quickly as possible. On-time delivery is one of the common trends in final mile delivery, which you can leverage effectively with deconsolidation. You can consolidate and deconsolidate your shipment whenever you want to reach your customers quickly. For fast delivery, you may need a 3PL partner to handle all such shipments with additional benefits to the business.
Avail Your Products in the Market
Deconsolidation enables you to reach the market as soon as possible while other businesses are still waiting for the entire container load to reach the market. Therefore, your products are always available to your end consumer.
