Services of Special Interest to the Retail Industry

Disaster-relief services

We can free valuable space within your DC network by pre-positioning critical or disaster-relief product in our North American network. Combined with our information technology, receiving, inventory and shipping accuracy, quick-delivery and reporting procedures, we provide you with vital emergency store support in the event of hurricanes, tornadoes, blizzards or floods.

Flexible "footprint"

We regularly acquire, on a short-term basis, hundreds of thousands of square feet of distribution space that matches our customers' unique requirements. Our unmatched expertise in negotiating and securing space across North America makes us a valued partner to our customers.

Vendor-managed inventory programs

Kuehne + Nagel can maintain inventory data within our warehouse management systems for multiple vendors. This segregation provides you with financial data allowing you to charge vendors for warehousing costs.

Order & inventory management programs

The Kuehne + Nagel Dashboard™ is a Web-based interface that allows you to track everything from inventories to shipping status via the internet. Because Kuehne + Nagel Dashboard is accessible via the Internet for authorized users, you and your vendors can get on-line status on orders, inventory and other data without having to be directly connected to the specific system on which the information resides. This fast, easy access to information allows better decision-making based on accurate, real-time data. In addition, Dashboard functionality enables you to key orders directly into our WMS system to allocate inventory.

Store-direct shipments

Kuehne + Nagel has the ability and experience to ship product direct to stores, cutting touch points and yielding transportation savings. Based on your requirements, we can use either our warehouse management systems or your enterprise system.
