Case Study: Colony Brands, Inc. achieves 25% faster peak shipping and cost savings with BluJay Solutions

Colony Brands gains flexibility and cost savings with BluJay

Colony Brands, founded in 1926 as the U.S.’s first mail-order cheese business and now operating 10 food and non-food catalog brands, faced a major logistics challenge: roughly 80% of its annual volume ships during an eight-week holiday peak (over 1.5 million shipments), requiring flexible throughput, carrier compliance and customized labeling to avoid shipping interruptions.

Partnering with BluJay Parcel (since 2002) gave Colony Brands an enterprise multi-carrier shipping platform that automated and customized labeling, integrated with WMS and conveyor automation, and enabled rate shopping and correct DIM usage. The solution reduced time to ship by 25%, lowered outbound carrier costs, and provided scalable cloud/hybrid deployment and improved shipment visibility and control during peak periods.
