Bunzl Distribution USA Implements Global Trade Management Platform to Streamline Inbound Supply Chain

August 25, 2009

Bunzl Distribution announced recently that it has implemented a Global Trade Management platform from Management Dynamics to improves in-transit visibility and import compliance.

With more than 90 warehouses throughout the U.S., Canada, Mexico and the Caribbean, Bunzl is a leading supplier of disposable paper and plastic packaging supplies to an array of businesses and industries. These customers include supermarket retailers, self-distributing chains and wholesalers, as well as food processors, restaurants, institutions, airline and industrial markets.

By integrating the end-to-end import supply chain on a single GTM platform, Bunzl can better coordinate the process among origin operations, its logistics providers, and branch operations. In this way, Bunzl eliminates supply chain bottlenecks, better manages carrier and supplier performance, and reduces entry processing and brokerage fees to improve customs compliance.

“With increased international scrutiny being placed on security, safety and compliance, we needed to enhance our existing import compliance program and establish a comprehensive track-and-trace system for real-time visibility to our import shipments in-transit,” said Jerry Foley, Import Export Compliance Officer at Bunzl.

“We selected Management Dynamics for its ability to provide supply chain visibility and compliance solutions on a single platform as well as its depth of international trade content, its long standing history in the marketplace, and strong presence in other countries.”
