Case Study: a leading global apparel manufacturer achieves $3 million in parcel savings with TransImpact

Global Apparel Leader Cuts Parcel Costs by $3 Million with Smarter Carrier Strategy

a leading global apparel manufacturer was facing pressure to reduce its substantial $22.3 million annual parcel shipping spend. Despite a strong, long-standing relationship with its incumbent carrier, internal negotiations consistently yielded only moderate savings. The company engaged TransImpact and its Parcel Contract Negotiation service to break this cycle and secure a better agreement.

TransImpact introduced competitive tension and leveraged data analytics to negotiate from a position of strength. The solution resulted in $3 million in savings, a 13.6% reduction in parcel costs, and a new long-term carrier agreement with built-in incentives for future growth, far exceeding the manufacturer's initial projections.
