Impact

The company achieved operational improvements within and beyond traditional supply chain boundaries, capturing significant ongoing savings.

A $3.5B multinational food processing company employs more than 7,500 people producing private-label consumer packaged goods (CPG) in segments, including snacks, meals, and beverages.

Food Corp* embarked on a public, company-wide restructuring initiative to simplify their product portfolio, rationalize their array of production facilities, and drive savings via operational improvements.

Embarking on the largest organizational transformation by a private-label CPG company in the U.S.

Historically, Food Corp grew through acquisitions. Over time, that growth approach created opportunities to improve operating costs by streamlining their North American operations. They hired Pariveda to optimize their supply chain network as part of this large-scale organizational transformation.

We partnered with key stakeholders to define, structure, and lead several due diligence efforts to determine the total supply chain impact of their major reorganization and facility consolidation scenarios.

How Pariveda charted the path for supply chain optimization and simplification:

Developed recommendations for structural supply chain initiatives and facilitated the appropriate approvals for execution.
Led efforts to enhance manufacturing capabilities, demand and capacity alignment, warehouse/distribution modeling and optimization, and logistics reporting and awareness.
Assembled and led cross-functional subject matter expert teams to execute tasks and identify, evaluate, and resolve issues.

Due diligence and strategic project execution drove $50M in annual net savings.

“In business it is all about relationships. I have worked with many consultants who were more focused on perception vs. the tasks at hand. The team at Pariveda broke that perception with a refreshing approach, insightful ideas, and most importantly desired results. They helped focus attention on the critical needs of the business regardless of the size and complexity of the problem. Pariveda became a trusted partner that was sought out because of their skills, knowledge, and ideas.
