Case Study: a major fast food chain protects its launch timeline with Millwood’s packaging science validation

Nation’s Largest Fast Food Chain protects launch timeline and saves 136,000 boxes with Millwood, Inc.

A major national fast food chain faced a critical challenge when a packaging vendor's specification error threatened to delay the opening of its new automated distribution center. The variance in product dimensions risked halting its automated storage and retrieval system. The customer engaged Millwood, Inc. and its Packaging Science Lab services to find a solution and protect its launch timeline.

Millwood utilized its SURE process and Pallet Design System software to rapidly engineer, test, and validate three new pallet designs. This science-backed approach provided the customer with verified performance data. The collaboration resulted in an on-time facility launch, preventing product loss equivalent to 136,000 boxes per rotation and protecting the customer's multimillion-dollar investment.
