Case Study: a leading nationwide snack foods manufacturer reduces freight spend and improves compliance with Redwood Logistics

Consumer Snack Manufacturer Takes Control

The snack manufacturer, a leading nationwide producer, faced challenges with supplier compliance, carrier selection, and a lack of visibility into its freight spend. To address this, they engaged Redwood Logistics to implement an automated, multi-modal rating and optimization solution.

Redwood Logistics implemented a technology-driven command and control system that managed order execution, carrier selection, and daily load planning. This solution delivered a 31.26% reduction in freight spend, saving $1.26 million with a single supplier in the first year, while also increasing daily order execution volume by 19%. Due to this success, Redwood expanded its managed solution to dozens of the manufacturer's suppliers.
