Aspire Bakeries is a leading cross-category foodservice and retail baking company that delivers premium breads and sweet baked goods across North America. The business partnered with e2open’s Logistics as a Service (LaaS) to capitalize on all the advantages of their Transportation Management System (TMS).
The situation
Aspire Bakeries struggled to fully harness the potential of their TMS. They understood that valuable data and capabilities were being left on the table, and without those insights, they wouldn’t be able to improve cost efficiency, delivery performance, and supply chain visibility.
The challenge
Faced with increasing shipment volumes and external challenges like severe weather conditions, Aspire Bakeries needed a solution that could do more than just tender freight. They required a system that could leverage the full spectrum of their TMS capabilities to make data-driven decisions, reduce risks, and maintain service standards.
The outcome
By adopting e2open’s Logistics as a Service (LaaS), Aspire Bakeries transformed how they managed their logistics operations, and achieved significant results within the first year, including: 40% reduction in delivery-date-to-payment batch timing, 4.5% increase in multi-stop planning efficiency, and a 57% boost in intermodal use.
