About The Company
Our client is a global leader in consumer goods, renowned for their comprehensive portfolio of products across the food, beverages, home care, personal care, and beauty sectors.

The Challenge
Aiming for Supply Chain Efficiency and Profitability
Our client, a leading consumer goods manufacturer, faced significant inefficiencies in warehouse management and dispatch processes in their Sri Lanka Operations. Challenges included difficulties in accurately identifying and storing products, leading to delays and dispatch errors, as well as inconsistent application of FIFO/LIFO strategies, causing product obsolescence and financial losses.
Additionally, the lack of a centralized tracking system limited supply chain visibility, hindering effective logistics management. These issues underscored the need for a streamlined, automated approach to improve efficiency and financial performance.
The Solution
Empowering Transparent and Efficient Supply Chain Operations
To address their supply chain challenges, we deployed our proprietary supply chain visibility platform eSeal®, to digitalize their operations. eSeal® integrated seamlessly with their production lines and warehouses, enabling real-time tracking of products from packaging to dispatch. This provided complete visibility into inventory levels, improving accuracy in product identification and placement.
The solution also automated dispatch processes, ensuring correct order dispatch (FIFO/LIFO) to reduce obsolescence and enhance compliance. Additionally, eSeal® centralized the tracking of dispatched goods, improving supply chain monitoring and significantly reducing manual labor, thereby boosting overall efficiency and compliance.
The Outcome
Driving Supply Chain Success with Superior Efficiency and Cost Efficiency
The implementation of eSeal® significantly benefited our client’s Sri Lanka operations. The company achieved up to 2.8% in revenue savings by reducing wrong dispatches through improved accuracy and efficiency. Material obsolescence losses decreased by 3% as automated dispatch ensured proper management of product shelf life.
Additionally, the solution led to a 3.4% reduction in working capital by streamlining secondary packing and warehouse operations, resulting in more efficient inventory management. The reduction in manual labor further enhanced overall efficiency and compliance, helping the company maintain high operational standards.
That’s digital performance unlocked, and measurable results delivered!
