Honeycomb Helps Melk MOOOve Quickly

Problem

Nick is a small brand owner and deals with small batch concentrates and orders everything on demand.  Unfortunately his shipment of 5,000 concentrate jars was damaged in transit and waiting another 12 weeks wasn’t an option.

Action

Honeycomb leveraged their Tactical Inventory model to help Nick.  First, we had to understand his packaging dimensions and best match with available inventory.  

Result

From start to finish, Nick received his jars in 3 days resulting in avoided loss of revenue by waiting for 12 weeks.  In addition, Honeycomb stateside inventory was at a lower price than a smaller brand can achieve on its own by leveraging our Hive Strategic Sourcing model.
