Case Study: Kraft Heinz achieves improved visibility and 50% reduction in yard truck and driver resources with Kaleris

Kraft Improves Visibility and Gains Efficiencies with Kaleris YMS

Kraft Heinz, one of the world’s largest food and beverage companies, struggled with limited yard visibility and clipboard- and spreadsheet-based trailer tracking that drove up transportation costs and operational inefficiencies. To address this, Kraft Heinz partnered with Kaleris and implemented an automated yard management solution (Kaleris YMS) to replace manual yard checks and fragmented processes.

Kaleris’ YMS centralized and automated yard operations, eliminating daily manual yard checks and manual reporting while improving carrier communication and yard inventory reconciliation. The result for Kraft Heinz included a 50% reduction in truck and driver resources needed for yard operations, reduced private fleet use and yard truck fuel consumption, elimination of overflow lots, and significant reductions in demurrage and detention charges — delivering improved visibility and measurable cost and efficiency gains.
