Crate choice
September 1st 2007

PHS Teacrate has signed a deal with JJB Sports to supply crates for its nationwide supply chain. The three-year agreement will provide JJB with up to 50 000 crates for its distribution centre in Wigan.

Teacrate's Dynamic Pooling system is said to guarantee continuity of supply during seasonal peaks and major sporting events.

Nick Burke, national sales manager, comments "We look at optimum usage levels and work out the size of the product pool. To guarantee supply during seasonal peaks we agree to hold a buffer stock of crates that can be called upon at short notice. This worked particularly well, for example, during the World Cup last year."
