Kellogg’s

Kellogg’s family of brands includes everything from frozen snacks to breakfast icons.

Location: Battle Creek, Michigan

Industry: Food & Beverage

Challenges:

As Kellogg’s expands into new areas — such as the snack market with its recent acquisition of Pringles — its goals include:

• Maintaining impeccable customer service
• Lowering costs
• Increasing efficiency
• Protecting shipments

Solutions Implemented:

Körber worked with Kellogg’s to ensure that all product size and weight data was fed into the warehouse management system. Kellogg’s implemented:

• VoiceMan

Benefits:

Kellogg’s initially expected to see a 10% increase in productivity, but it ended up seeing nearly 40% improvement, as well as increased customer satisfaction from major retailers. Additional benefits included:

• VoiceMan cubes and groups products into the appropriate customer-specific pallet stack, ensuring they will be picked and built correctly and transported to stores without compromising product integrity.
• VoiceMan provides XPO’s warehouse managers and supervisors with comprehensive visibility and control tools, including real-time dashboards and the ability to manage workload and exceptions across teams.
