Warehousing & Inventory Management Services
Why Inventory Management Matters
Inventory represents a significant investment at many companies and can amount to 20-30% of total assets.
Packaging supplies often account for a sizeable portion of a company's inventory value. There are costs associated with developing and maintaining inventory, including housing it, handling it, insuring it, administering it, and more. This is money that could be better spent elsewhere to
grow your business. Building the optimal inventory strategy is complex, but Berlin Packaging's extensive industry expertise, expansive global infrastructure, and elite operating systems allow us to help our customers seamlessly and efficiently manage their inventory and save money.
Warehousing Capabilities
Just-in-time delivery of what you need, when you need it.
We understand that missed deliveries can translate into missed shipments and lost revenue for your business. Berlin Packaging makes thousands of shipments every month, and our customers have grown to rely on our precision and reliability week in and week
out. We have locations around the globe and use near-site warehouses for maximum proximity to your facilities to save time and money. Our expert teams handle all the logistics from housing through delivery, so you don't have to.
Demand & Supply Planning
Berlin Packaging leverages People, Process, and Technology to give our customers more inventory when they need it and less inventory when they don't. We have a team of dedicated demand planners who leverage both statistics and live conversations to accurately forecast future needs. We leverage a monthly Sales & Operations Planning (S&OP) process to connect demand
and supply plans and identify, escalate, and resolve any issues; and we use a best-in-class demand and supply planning tool which brings it all together. The sophisticated system provides real-time alerts that allow us to right-size supply when demand changes, dynamically adjust safety stock, and avoid aged ware and stockouts.
Here's just some of what we do for our customers:
• Data-based forecasting using real-time and historical data
• Collaborative consultations to better understand your business and plan ahead
• Dynamically adjust safety stocks based on seasonality and latest market trends

Berlin Packaging offers a wide array of services to add value to your inventory, including:
• Providing VMI and Make & Hold programs for packaging components
• Managing Certificates of Compliance
• Performing bar-code labeling, re-palletizing, and product reworking
