Case Study
How Apollo Supply Chain helped a leading E-Commerce and FMCG achieve 99-percent fill rates and a vastly improved delivery percentage
The Challenge
A low fill rate impacting company’s competitiveness and profitability
The primary transportation leg of the supply chain reported an alarming empty run rate of 50 percent.
A low T+3 distribution rate, which limited the company’s reach in rural markets, which had allowed their competitors to race ahead of them in several regions
A high transportation cost inflating the total cost of logistics
A high non-delivery percentage
The Solution
Happy Drivers. Improved Delivery
We helped the company initiate performance-linked incentive pay-outs to drivers which led to a higher delivery percentage.
Reduced Empty Runs
We helped the company implement a more efficient route planning system to help reduce the percentage of empty runs in the primary transportation leg.
Faster Go-To-Market
We relocated a warehouse closer to the consumption point which, in turn, enhanced faster GTM strategy.
Moving from 2-day delivery model to same day delivery
We enabled last-mile delivery planning to improve vehicle visibility and utilization.
Real-time visibility on order delivery
We provided technology solution for track and trace, TAT (Turn Around Time) monitoring and vehicle/ driver performance.
Increased Sales Efforts for the Customer
We deployed our fleets to increase penetration into the rural markets through on-ground campaigns and in turn using the consumer insights and our rural market reach to drive planning visibility and last mile operations. We educated the consumers about increased cost savings on bulk orders and efficient usage of the customer’s mobile application at the time of deliveries.
The Result
Significant Resource Optimization
Fast Execution
The complete integrated solution was implemented in a short span of 10 days with implementation of 3 new warehouses in just a week’s time.
Near-Perfect Fill Rates
The solution resulted in a category-leading 99-percent fill rate.
Greater Customer Delight
Deliveries to T+1 were improved resulting in improved responsiveness and customer service.
