Case Study: The Coca-Cola Company improves supply chain efficiency with Vector

The Coca-Cola Company speeds yard turns to under 15 minutes with Vector

The Coca-Cola Company faced a challenge with driver shortages and an inefficient supply chain, which led to capacity crunches and higher transportation costs. Their yard operations were plagued by gate congestion, constant paperwork exchange, and inaccurate information, causing delays and making it difficult to achieve their shipper-of-choice goals. To address this, they worked with vendor Vector to implement its Digital Shipment platform.

By accelerating the rollout of Vector's solution, Coca-Cola improved communication and visibility. The platform enabled digital check-ins and provided real-time shipment data, which significantly reduced dwell times. Some facilities completed drop and hooks in under 15 minutes. The results included lower transportation costs, more efficient freight movement, and faster dispute resolution, creating a win-win situation for all parties.
