‘SCA and 3T have been working together for 2
years and the partnership is a great success.
Since implementing the 3T Logistics solution
there is greater control over our Supply Chain
and much better understanding of the true
logistics costs. The accurate and detailed
information from GCM helps both Thatcham
and Aylesford operations to run the business
more efficiently and more importantly far
more cost effectively. The net effect is reduced
transport costs by more than 20%, so it’s
been a real win-win partnership delivering
significant hard and soft benefits.’
