13. 2. Developments in retail (1)
Internationalisation
New technologies that support chain control
Ever increasing complexity of the supply chain
Never out of stock; low prices – high value
Problems with retailers
Broad product availability necessary
Surprises and standard quality
Distribution centres have approximately 12-17 weeks stock
Most goods are bought EXW/FOB
Only full loads from costs point of view
Transit time for import is approximately 60 days (with a 50% spread)
Transport time is not more than 35% of the average transit time
Presentation “ Meerendonk EN” 2008

14. 2. Developments in retail (2)
Problems with suppliers
Fixed production structure, fixed economic production runs
Constant pressure on the costs
Familiar with seasonal or yearly volume of the retailer but every order
comes as a surprise (order size, frequency, delivery times)
65% of the total order transit time lies between order placing and order
shipment
Consequences for customer
1. Constant pressure on customer order service
2. Balance working capital and service levels
3. Centralisation of the logistical organisation
4. More collaboration between links within the supply chain
5. More focus on renewed concepts
