Electronics · Vietnam → US

Cutting transshipment cost for a contract manufacturer

Challenge

Two-leg routing via a busy hub pushed cost per TEU up and caused roll-overs during peak.

Solution

Re-modelled the lane through Singapore with a dedicated consolidation window and a secondary carrier for overflow.

Result

~18% lower cost per TEU, roll-overs eliminated in the first quarter.

Automotive · Japan inbound

Inbound distribution for an auto-parts trader

Challenge

Parts arrived in scattered LCL lots; average inland dwell hit 4.2 days and tied up working capital.

Solution

Set a consolidation hub near the port and a fixed weekly shuttle to the assembly region.

Result

Dwell cut to 2.6 days; demurrage nearly zero.

D2C · Australia

Fulfilment design for a cross-border brand

Challenge

Direct-shipping from Asia meant 10–14 day delivery and high returns friction.

Solution

Designed a bonded staging model with a last-mile partner, balancing stock vs air/sea mix.

Result

Delivery to 3–5 days at lower landed cost; return handling localised.
