Last Link Limited Case Studies
The founder of Last Link Limited was instrumental in setting up a unique operation at Meadowhall Shopping Centre in Sheffield. This was a consolidation centre that provided services to the retail tenants, dramatically improving their control over the 'last 50 metres of the supply chain.
The following are some quotes about the services provided by this operation which is called The ARC:
- "We are able to operate out 10,000 sq ft store with less than 500 sq ft of back office, as we pull stock 3 or 4 times a day from The ARC."
- "We were able to open our store early as the stock was prepared at The ARC while the fitters were completing their work."
- "In our recent sale we beat out target by 240% and all the sales stock was prepared and ready without any interference in my stores daily operation."
- "Since using The ARC we’ve reduced shrinkage by over 70%."
Other Retail clients have given us positive feedback on the results we have helped them achieve, with quotes such as:
- "The work that the team from Last Link did with us helped reduce our stock levels by £300,000 and increase our stock accuracy by nearly 10%."
- "We’re a small retailer but Last Link fitted right in with us and as a result we improved the delivery from our on line sales by 10%."
Our manufacturing based clients have also provided us with positive feedback:
- "The move from our 5 storey mill to a brand new building 5 miles down the road was project managed by Martin and we were in and back up and running just as planned; on time and in the budget that we set out."
- "“The guys at Last Link worked with my team, training them and helping them implement the improvements. This put about £100,000 back on my bottom line as productivity got a lot better."
