Case Study: Beverage Can Company reduces freight costs with Transplace

Transplace Cross-Border Solutions Helps Mexico Manufacturing Company Save Cost, Optimize Capacity, and Customer Experience

Beverage Can Company, an industry-leading manufacturer of beverage cans, needed to improve cross-border supply chain efficiency as stricter border requirements, limited storage capacity in Mexico, and long delivery times were hurting time-to-market and market share. The company turned to Transplace for cross-docking and transloading services to speed shipments to customers in the U.S., Mexico, and Canada.

Transplace designed a cross-dock solution in Laredo, Texas, and provided integrated transportation, intermodal, warehousing, customs compliance, and visibility tools to streamline cross-border operations. With Transplace, Beverage Can Company reduced transportation costs, improved shipment visibility and capacity, and achieved a 7% savings on freight expense compared to its previous provider.
