Challenges in Retail Logistics
Cost per delivery
Higher cost per delivery is the key culprit for revenue loss and high operational costs for businesses. This cost could have arised from multiple factors like, bad routing, poor warehouse operations, capacity challenges and more.
Static and manual routing
To achieve better unit economics, optimizing routing is key. With manual routing methods, reducing miles of road isn’t going to work. Adopting robust routing systems can factor in on-ground realities to provide efficient routes leading to decreased mile travelled.
Subpar capacity planning
Festive and peak season are the times retailers are burdened the most. To accommodate all orders or at least most, unit economics goes for a toss, leaving the business with a huge dent in revenue.
On-ground tracking
Tracking driver activity on ground to make sure they deliver on-time and are adhering to scheduled routes can be a pain without robust systems as manual communication methods are tiresome and inefficient.
How do we help?
Locus’ Dispatch Management and Customer Experience all mile system can optimize everything from order to delivery by automating capacity, route management, fleet tracking and customer order tracking which is a must when a shipper is looking to outsource their delivery. Carriers also have access to a wide network of other carrier/transporters they can rent/contract vehicles in case of shortage, to make sure SLAs aren’t compromised.
