IFCO North America Saves Time, Reduces Costs with BluJay’s LaaS

IFCO North America selected BluJay’s Logistics as a Service (LaaS) to gain a team of experts that would fully leverage the Transportation Management solution for the company.

IFCO Systems is the global market leader of reusable plastic containers (RPCs) for fresh products including fruits and vegetables, meat, eggs, and bananas. With over 300 retailers and 14,000 producers, IFCO’s global pool has more RPCs worldwide than any other supplier.

IFCO North America is the largest RPC pool operation, utilizing a combination of state-of-the-art technology and digital solutions, supporting external auditing to maintain standards.

In 2017, unprecedented transport market conditions led to higher spot market utilization and ultimately higher transportation spend for IFCO. The company needed to reduce transportation spend by improving primary carrier tender acceptance, decreasing spot market utilization, increasing intermodal conversion, and shortening order lead time. IFCO sought a solution with a powerful network that could provide stabilization, scalability, analysis, and actionable intelligence for continuous improvement.
