How DSC helped Eveready/Energizer manage a high-value product
It’s all in the details when it comes to exceeding requirements for accuracy and security

Sure, every manufacturing company wants to sell as many products as possible. But, sometimes it’s not just about high volume. It’s about high value and managing to the appropriate level of detail, accuracy and security needed in warehousing and shipping the product. And, when that’s the case, it’s about having a partner you can trust to customize handling and storage solutions.

Eveready/Energizer had such a partner in DSC Logistics when it came to managing warehousing and shipping of high value product such as hearing aid batteries and camera batteries, small in size but high in dollars and numbers in cases and pallets. DSC managed the details for Energizer in several important ways:

  • Inventory. DSC utilized its powerful Warehouse Management System (WMS) to maintain a very exacting inventory.
  • Security. DSC’s highly trained employees handled the monitoring and surveillance of the inventory kept in a separate secure room.
  • Solution. DSC designed a unique storage solution: in the racking system, flow racks enabled the picking of small numbers of product, sometimes only one battery or packet of batteries from a case.
  • Picking and Shipping. In an unusual situation in terms of a specific customer base, DSC shipped in “each” quantities to specialty locations (doctors’ offices, clinics, camera shops) as well as to mass merchandisers. These smaller locations all had different standards, special receiving processes and individual delivery situations—no problem for DSC.

DSC’s process-driven culture makes this attention to detail and flexibility possible. Our IT team customizes solutions based on the needs of individual customers, like Energizer. When it comes to controlling a secure environment, we create and maintain conditions that exceed customers’ requirements. Our employees are trained to handle unusual situations.

We know how important it is to be able to trust a logistics provider, and we prove it.

At DSC, our mission is to help customers reach their business goals. To do that, we are happy to adapt our systems and processes to meet changing needs. When a valued customer develops new products, opens new markets or explores new directions, we are excited by the opportunities those changes present. Through communication and collaboration, we can design and implement strategies and solutions that can help take them anywhere they want to go!
