Groenewout, driven by knowledge

SPGPrints supplies printing machines and consumables (in particular screens and ink) to customers in the textile and printing industries. A network study was conducted to meet the company’s need for greater insight into the supply chain and the opportunities for supply chain optimization. Groenewout created a model of the existing supply chain and analyzed various scenarios.

Hollister recently moved into its brand-new European distribution center in Oud-Gastel in the Netherlands. To realize this new-build project, the company enlisted Groenewout’s expertise – and not for the first time. Job Sonke, Manager of the Hollister European Distribution Center: “An excellent decision that has once again paid off.”

PK OEM Parts, based in the Dutch city of Dordrecht, supplies spare parts for heavy-duty diesel engines such as those found on ships and in power plants. The company’s biggest challenge is to maintain the optimal balance between service level and inventory value. A user-friendly, stand-alone tool from Groenewout has not only helped to improve the service level, but has also reduced the inventory value by 15 percent.
