That’s the Spirit! Partnership Brings Supply Chain Visibility Into the Mix
THE CHALLENGE
Operating in a rapidly expanding market, the Lyre’s team found themselves leveraging multiple shipping channels across multiple states, leading to a very inefficient supply chain. Not only was it difficult for Lyre’s to track operational and financial data, but due to their rapid growth, the company quickly outgrew their East Coast space.
In a race against time, Lyre’s needed to find a new location within a matter of weeks.
The quick move shed light on the many operational inefficiencies the company faced due to their fragmented supply chain. Selling perishable products, Lyre’s needed more cohesive systems in place for inventory management and shipment tracking.
Additionally, with part of Lyre’s core team based in Australia, the juggling of multiple vendors within a supply chain that didn’t accommodate global time zones resulted in a breakdown of communication, time wasted, and revenue lost.
THE SOLUTION
SEKO’s flexibility and capability to offer nationwide support allowed them to quickly take over and fix Lyre’s fragmented supply chain.
Within a matter of days, SEKO delivered a proposal covering multiple states and distribution centers (DCs), enabling Lyre’s to receive and distribute products without having to worry about added costs.
SEKO also alleviated a significant amount of stress that came with managing multiple U.S. shipping channels by implementing MySEKO Harmony.
