Case study: Holland & Barrett targets streamlined supply chain with Paragon's routing and scheduling software
Holland & Barrett has adopted Paragon’s routing and scheduling software as part of its ongoing transformation, strengthening operations to better deliver what customers expect in a rapidly evolving retail sector. The software solution will enable the health and wellness retailer, which operates in 16 countries, to restructure its UK store replenishment operation, supplying more than 900 locations across the UK from its warehousing and international distribution center in Burton-on-Trent.
“To maintain our position as one of the world’s leading health and wellness retailers, it is vital that Holland & Barrett continues to invest in streamlining its supply chain, offering the best customer experience possible in the most efficient manner,” explains Jason Thompson, transport operations manager at Holland & Barrett. “Paragon’s routing and scheduling software solution will enable us to transform store replenishment, removing the need to keep high levels of inventory in store by delivering direct to shelf. It will also enable us to gain better understanding of where we can use third-party logistics partners in outlying areas through strategic modelling.”
