Weber Distribution Helps California Innovations Turn its Inventory Quicker Through Assembly Line Solution

July 1, 2009

Weber Distribution has started installing HardBody® plastic liners into California Innovations' collapsible cooler bags to help turn their inventory quicker by assembling the products on-demand, improve their delivery times, and save money on their transportation and storage costs.

"By Weber assembling our coolers at their Fontana distribution center, we are able to turn our inventory quicker because the product is created as the market demands it," said Carlos Garrido, California Innovations' director of operations (logistics & distribution). "Now we are producing our product locally at the distribution center and it's assembled as required, which has significantly decreased our costs and improved our turnaround time."  Click here for more.
