The Consumer Packaged Goods (CPG) industry encompasses products that are used daily by average consumers and require routine replacement or replenishment, such as food, beverages, clothes, tobacco, makeup, and household products. Despite experiencing a slowdown in growth over recent years, the CPG industry is still one of the largest sectors in North America, valued at approximately $2 trillion and led by well-established companies like Coca-Cola, Procter & Gamble, and L’Oréal.
At Ford Freight, we understand the importance of the consumer packaged goods industry and its relationship to the trucking industry. We have years of experience in providing transportation and logistics services to companies that manufacture and distribute consumer packaged goods. Our expertise in this field helps us optimize the supply chain and minimize transportation costs for our clients.
We know that companies in the consumer packaged goods industry face fierce competition, and their success depends on their products’ shelf space in retail locations and company image. As a result, we collaborate closely with our customers to guarantee that their goods are delivered promptly and safely. Our team of professionals is knowledgeable with the packaging specifications for consumer packaged goods, making sure that they are properly and securely protected to prevent damage during shipping. We specialize in transporting a range of products in this industry, including cosmetics, frozen dinners, bread, milk, toothpaste, and more. These items have short shelf lives and require routine replacement or replenishment by consumers. CPG companies also require a transportation and logistics provider with expertise in temperature-controlled shipping to maintain the quality and integrity of perishable products during transportation.
The packaged goods industry continues evolving, and consumers are increasingly turning to online retailers to purchase their daily essentials. We offer a range of e-commerce logistics solutions, including last-mile delivery services and click-and-collect options, to ensure that our clients can reach their customers wherever they are.
