The world’s leading FMCG brands are increasingly turning to contract manufacturers, 3PLs and co-packers to handle late-stage customisation work and new product innovations. But in relying on external partners, brands risk losing visibility into the status of production and quality, which can hinder agility in the market and response times and put their reputation at risk. Digitalisation is the answer to many of these challenges and by being Powered by Nulogy contract packers can navigate their way through them.
The need for digitalisation
Many brands are setting the bar higher in terms of their expectations from external manufacturing and contract packing partners. Digitalisation in particular is emerging as a default expectation, precisely because supply chain leaders understand that digitalised suppliers are better equipped to furnish them with the information they need quickly and accurately. With a digitalised shop floor, powered by Nulogy, co-packers can capture real-time shop floor data on the production status of orders, allowing them to respond to their brand customers much faster than environments that rely on paper and spreadsheets – or the warehouse manager’s memory.
What’s more, from a quality and traceability perspective, brands can expect faster response times if their suppliers are fully digitalised. In the event of a recall situation, having ‘Powered by Nulogy’ capabilities can mean the distinction between executing a recall within minutes rather than hours or even days.
Packaging Innovations 2024
Nulogy will showcase its latest products at this year’s Packaging Innovations & Empack show, held on 21st and 22nd February, at the NEC in Birmingham. Visitors to stand F96 will be able to find out about why Nulogy has emerged as the clear standard for optimal contract packing operations.
Across two separate panel discussions, Nulogy will also highlight how brands and their external supply chain partners are collaborating to enhance market agility. Josephine Coombe, Nulogy’s Chief Commercial Officer, will moderate both sessions on the Supply Chain and Manufacturing Stage at 11:00 each day. During these discussions, she will gather insights on stage from industry thought leaders Thomas Verbeke, from Danone, Anita Donohoe, of Kinaxia, Emma Verkaik, of BCMPA, and Michael Briggs, from Marsden Packaging.
