Our shipping services fall into four different categories or modes, though Domestic and international shipments are common (intermodal means using multiple methods of transportation). Full-service shipping companies should be familiar with each of these methods. These include:

In MEXSHP Egypt, we are familiar with each of the full-service shipping methods

Today’s warehousing relies on computerized management systems that can track incoming inventory, determine distribution locations, maintain control, locate pick points, and prepare products for loading. Each stage relies on electronic management systems and electronic devices to log real-time data. Knowing the location of each item ensures nothing is lost or damaged, and products are rotated as needed.

An effective warehouse management system (WMS) allows easy online access, provides real-time information, enables internal packing or processing according to specific customer requirements, and ensures timely compliance labeling.

Full-service shipping companies adjust our internal functions to meet unique customer needs. Each additional service is added value that the customer does not need to manage at their facility. Also, with computer-managed logistics, inventory reports can be generated instantly, returns and backorders can be recorded and tracked, and inventory can be rotated automatically.

Inbound inventory must be handled quickly and accurately. Errors in recording recently arrived products create problems throughout the warehouse. Our company can provide the latest warehouse management systems (WMS) that reduce the likelihood of errors during receiving.

Inbound receipts must accurately reflect batch numbers, manufacturing dates, expiration dates, serial numbers, track purchase orders, and instructions for “dock-to-stock” and backorders. To further facilitate the receiving process, pre-delivery notices can be sent before the shipment, which will reduce the manual entry required upon arrival.

Whether orders are placed by the customer or a “push” system is in place where products are shipped automatically based on forecasts or pre-agreed terms, inventory must be picked and moved to the loading area. Picking strategies vary by company and product type. We have implemented retrieval systems that automatically bring pallets from their designated locations via a network of conveyors to the loading area.

In other cases, picking is done more manually, often using different strategies for different products in the same warehouse. For example, sometimes products are picked to order. At other times, batch or zone picking may be appropriate.

Packing, checking, and loading is the next step. It must be done correctly to avoid damage, but quickly to ensure timing. The loading process is monitored by our operations department, reducing internal inventory while generating the correct documentation for loading and delivery.

Delivery is next. Assuming everything went well and the product arrived in excellent condition, shipping tools have further enhanced their reputation.

Supply chain logistics knowledge with our facilities.

While the science of supply chain logistics has evolved, many shipping companies continue to focus only on certain elements of the supply chain. In many cases, their customers have experienced inventory shortages, excess inventory, delivery delays, incorrect order fulfillment, and higher ground costs.

Advanced systems like MEXSHP Egypt have changed the way logistics are managed. With a comprehensive view of the entire supply chain and collaboration between all stakeholders, the system operates at the highest level of efficiency.
