PACKAGING AUDITS & MONITORING

---

Retailers, club stores, food service operators, distributors, and manufacturers can save millions of dollars with routine store and inventory inspections to ensure packaging specs are being met and problems remedied.

We work with retailers and multi-unit operators to monitor and police packaging to ensure packaging meets product specs and functional requirements.

We save our clients millions of dollars by removing, redesigning, and resolving packaging issues that contribute toward:

·  Damaged Product and Theft

·  Inventory Loss

·  Extra Labor to clean up, repackage, process returns, and re-merchandise

·  Poor Merchandising

·  Excess Waste

·  Workman’s Comp accidents (Safety)

·  Customer/Member problems opening packaging

·  Food biodegradation and food safety issues

Most retailers don’t have time to monitor stores and vendor packaging as it relates to packaging, nor do they have the reporting systems to do so. We believe over 30% of the problems identified above are related to improper/poorly designed or spec’d packaging or how the operator is handling the package.

We conduct both cooperative and covert audits based on the specific issue or category being addressed.
