logistics. Welcome to Clipper.

to the principles that built our
reputation, and are dedicatedto delivering your goods and
your promises.

What isPortcentric logistics?
Quite simply, the next big thing inmodern supply chain – a distribution
centre that’s located at a port as
apposed to inland, bringingcompanies closer to the markets
they serve and reducing freight miles.Designed to save you money
and increase efficiency, Portcentriclogistics allows you to meet the
substantial challenges posed by cost
management and lead times, whilstat the same time it can help ensure
you meet your ‘green’ objectives.
Greater efficiency from day one As the port is your distribution centre,
there’s no need to transport your
stock to an inland distribution centre,so you save on freight costs
straightaway. In fact, as all of yourstock will be held at one centralised
point, rather than at multiple regional
distribution centres, there’s no needfor additional unnecessary inland
container movements, which means
you can dramatically reduce overallfleet mileage, and help reduce
traffic congestion.But cost cutting isn’t the only
benefit. Portcentric logistics also allows you to be flexible and responsive to
customer demands. You can move
stock in and out of the import centre within 24 hours, which means you
can deliver an altogether slickersupply chain to the benefit of both
you and your customers.It’s Clipper’s belief that Portcentric
logistics provides such a benefit to
businesses, and will be an integralpart of logistics solutions of the future,
that we have taken the step to investin developing a facility at Teesport,
which will be launched in 2011.
“Clipper listened to our needs and responded with an excellent
logistics solution. We keep choosing to work with Clipper
because we trust them to deliver on promises and, where
necessary, go the extra mile.”
