Store replenishment on a fixed schedule
Store replenishment, DC transfers and e-commerce fulfillment on fixed weekly windows, planned around your receiving teams.
Stores cannot plan around a maybe
Store teams staff receiving for the truck they expect. When freight shows up early, late or on the wrong day, the pallets sit in the back room and the shelves stay empty. E-commerce adds the opposite problem: hundreds of small orders that all have to leave today.

How we run retail freight
Fixed delivery days
Each store gets the same delivery day and window every week, so receiving is staffed once, not five times.
Consolidated in Columbus
Mixed SKUs from several suppliers are cross-docked into one store load, so one truck replaces three.
Orders out by 5 pm
E-commerce orders in by 1 pm are picked, packed and handed to the parcel carrier the same day.

faster dock time
A home goods brand ships to 220 stores across nine states. We cross-dock their inbound freight at Obetz and deliver each region on the same two days every week, so stores receive one load instead of five.
“We went from chasing updates to getting them. The 15-minute pings changed how our receiving team plans the day.”
