As is the case with almost all distributors, the warehouse and distribution process aspect of the business is extremely important. Businesses in need of distribution services are only interested in working with distribution companies that have high fulfillment rates. Latin American Distributor Inc. completely understands the importance of the warehouse and distribution process and has a proven track record of success and a commitment to investing in any way to improve the process.
Despite the grim 2015 economic outlook, LADI, with increasing demand and sales, moved into a facility that doubled its previous size. The current facility is 135,000 square feet. The warehouse is fully automated with a brand-new installment of a WMS (Warehouse Management System). This system helps the company ensure timely deliveries for all of their customers. Updating to the latest technology is an extremely important part of the company’s business model. With the sophisticated WMS, all orders are now scanned and packed to ensure proper order fulfillment. LADI is capable of tracking a case from when it enters the receiving door until it exits through shipping to its final destination. The company will continue to grow their warehouse services and distribution chain with more technological advancements to keep pace with and surpass the competition.
Additionally, LADI has a staff of dedicated employees working within their warehouse. These employees are highly experienced and trained to ensure every aspect of the distribution process runs efficiently. With a product mix of over 6,500 items, LADI is capable of fulfilling 200 orders each day. These orders are usually shipped within a 24 – 48 hour window from the time that the order is received. With the efficiency of their processes and employees, LADI can boast a 95% order fill rate on their housewares lines.
