Urgent goods? Think cross docking!

Cross docking for your tight flows

"Cross docking" means in French: "passage à quai", in other words it is the fact of moving goods from the unloading dock to the shipping dock, without storing the batches. The goods are then deposited and redistributed generally during the day. This organization optimizes the management of supplies and stocks linked to your supply chain. In general, this type of organization is used for urgent or priority orders, for products intended for events, newspapers, daily press, perishable products but also for products from e-commerce sites. Cross docking is an advantageous solution in terms of responsiveness and costs. You benefit from better responsiveness by avoiding the storage phase and this saves you valuable time. Another significant advantage: its cost! No more storage costs and intermediate handling operations, the delivery costs passed on to you are reduced!
