Logistics challenges facing Grands Moulins de Paris customers
- Inventory management between the production workshop and sales outlets
Finished goods stock is often split between the central workshop and several boutiques, but the systems don’t communicate. This disconnect leads to sales of products already sold out online or, conversely, items available in the store but invisible on the website, causing stock-outs and missed sales opportunities.
- B2B order processing: a manual, isolated process
Orders from professional customers (restaurants, hotels, other distributors) often arrive by email or telephone. They are processed manually, outside the e-commerce flow, which means double data entry, a high risk of error, and no consolidated view of the business.
- Complex shipments for a wide range of customers
Sending a pallet to a professional and a small fragile parcel to a private customer requires different carriers and different levels of service. Without automation, carrier selection is manual, costly and error-prone, with a direct impact on profitability and customer satisfaction.
- Lack of traceability for sensitive products
For the food industry, keeping track of production batches and use-by dates is a major challenge. Manual management makes this traceability virtually impossible, increasing operational risk and complicating the management of returns or recalls.
FAQ - Frequently asked questions
Our pastries and creations are fragile. Can we set up shipping rules to guarantee safe delivery and avoid breakage?
Absolutely. Carrier management is one of the pillars of our solution. You can configure very precise “shipping rules” that automate the choice of the most suitable carrier. These rules can be based on weight, destination, package dimensions, or even on specific attributes you define, such as “fragile product”. In this way, each order is automatically assigned to the transport service that guarantees the best quality-price-security ratio, reducing the risk of disputes and reinforcing the confidence of your customers.
How can we effectively manage the stocks of our products, which are distributed between our central workshop and our various stores (Ship from Store logic)?
The solution gives you a unified, real-time view of all your stock, wherever it may be. Each store and your workshop are considered as separate storage points. When an order is placed online, our orchestration rules can automatically allocate it to the point of sale closest to the end customer with the stock. This not only speeds up your delivery times considerably, but also optimizes the flow of stock across your entire network.
Our order preparation is a cottage industry and we waste a lot of time. How can your tool help us to be faster and more reliable without changing everything?
Our solution transforms order picking into an industrial process, even on a small scale. It enables you to optimize picking paths to minimize movements in your storage area. With the use of mobile terminals (PDAs), each product is scanned, eliminating picking errors and ensuring that the right product is in the right parcel. You can also prepare several similar orders at the same time (“batch picking”), which increases your efficiency tenfold, especially during seasonal peaks in activity.
We sell our creations online, in our boutiques, and directly to professionals. How can your solution unify such different flows?
Our platform is designed for omnichannel communication. It centralizes all your orders, whatever their origin, in a single interface. Thanks to native connectors for CMS such as Shopify or Prestashop, and the ability to integrate manual orders or via EDI for your B2B customers, you have a 360° view. You can then create automation rules to handle each flow according to its specific features (dedicated carrier, priority preparation, etc.), transforming your fragmented management into a fluid, controlled process.
