High-end Women’s Fashion Company cuts delivery times 50% with Maine Pointe

The client, a high-end women’s fashion company, was struggling with long delivery times of up to 9 days, which led to customer order cancellations and hindered growth. Their parent company sought Maine Pointe to overhaul the distribution model to support a potential doubling of revenue and to define a new strategy for improving delivery times.

Maine Pointe used analytics and supply chain expertise to analyze and optimize the client's network. The solution included creating an optimal warehouse strategy and shifting to a singular inventory system. This allowed Maine Pointe to reduce delivery times by 50%, achieve a 3-day lead time, drive 42% savings on inbound freight, and develop a roadmap for a 4% annual margin increase, delivering a project ROI of 7 to 1.
