The Challenge

A luxury automotive brand operating a network of more than 138 dealerships in China wanted to streamline their supply chain.

Having just been awarded a competitive tender to operate the luxury brand’s marketing warehouse in Q4 2023, Unipart Logistics was tasked with optimising space utilisation, reducing inventory discrepancies, and enhancing digital capabilities.

The most significant aspect of this challenge was completing the transfer of more than 5,000 SKUs from the existing supplier to Unipart with minimal disruption.
