Case Studies

Cross-docking solution delivers product to club stores within 24 hours

In 1990, KANE developed a cross-docking solution for a major club retailer to receive product from vendors, make it “store-ready” through consolidation and deliver it to stores -- all within 24 hours.  The solution leveraged KANE’s transportation management service and effectively eliminated storage costs.  By delivering excellent results, KANE was given the opportunity, in 1994, to expand its operation to the Mid-Atlantic region.  The KANE-operated cross-dock facility in Pennsylvania has been named as the number one facility in this national retailer’s DC network for nine of the last 12 years and the Maryland operation is consistently ranked in the top 5.
