Case Studies
Case Study: (PANASONIC )

Over $14,000 in savings on expedited freight the first week alone.

Just-In-Time Inventory Delivered For 80% Less.

Yes, it’s true. Panasonic was behind schedule on delivery of urgently needed air conditioning units. When an ocean container cleared customs in Long Beach, CA, Panasonic would pay as much as $18,000 to ship the entire contents by air to Texas.

When another client referred Panasonic to us, they were simply looking for better airfreight rates. We provided them, but we also asked Panasonic a question: What if we shipped just enough units by next-day air to get them through production until we could deliver the balance by truck?

The result was unbelievable. Instead of $18,000, the total cost came to just $3,550--a savings of $14,450 the first week alone.

In short, TLC continued to save Panasonic thousands of dollars in freight costs over the next few months. Whether the company needed to ship by air or by truck, we were able to adapt our services to their needs--sometimes by moving an entire container on a flat bed trailer from the dock to its final destination.

Our flexibility has since led to a variety of other work involving moving containers for companies with tight deadlines. It is our goal to handle every freight-moving project with the same kind of care we devoted to Panasonic—making things simple, sensible and cost effective, whatever it takes.
