Food Industry

The food industry is worth $1.5 trillion annually to the United States economy, according to FoodIndustry.com.

Major sub-sectors in the industry include agriculture and food manufacturing as well as food retailers such as supermarkets and grocery stores. Due to the perishable nature of many of the goods that move through the food distribution network, having an efficient, integrated supply chain is of critical importance to food manufacturers and grocery retailers alike.

Freight consolidation and shipping

TAGG Logistics, and its parent company, HubGroup, serve the food industry with a breadth of integrated supply chain solutions. One such solution is freight consolidation and shipping. With a freight consolidation solution, food manufacturers experience significant cost savings and performance improvements by combining multiple less-than-truckload (LTL) shipments into full truckloads.

When it comes to fulfilling orders to major grocery retailers such as Publix, HEB, Trader Joe’s and Whole Foods, freight consolidation, also known as retail consolidation, holds the answer to reducing complexities and increasing fulfillment performance.

Consumer Packaged Goods (CPG)

The Food industry is part of a much larger sector that we call Consumer Packaged Goods (CPG). Major players in the CPG market include some of the globe’s largest brands such as Procter & Gamble, Unilever, Colgate-Palmolive, Nestle and more. While analyst’s economic forecasts vary, the global CPG industry is expected to reach $14 trillion by 2025, according to Tiger Analytics. One giant force remains clear, and that is where a consumer goes, a CPG company follows. The relentless need to fulfill goods wherever, whenever and however a consumer wants them is how TAGG got our start, and remains core to our DNA today.

Ecommerce Order Fulfillment

The first trend is the rise of online e-tailing, where consumers can buy products from a wide range of websites, both owned and independent from the CPG manufacturers brand. TAGG helps clients manage any channel from anywhere! The second trend is the increasing desire for consumers to receive their products direct-to-doorstep with the ultimate flexibility to pick-up their product at a local store. These two trends mean CPG products need to be everywhere and anywhere a consumer wants them, including in every imaginable ecommerce, online channel.

Nutritional & Dietary Supplement

According to IBIS World, the Vitamin and Supplement Manufacturing industry is valued at $39 Billion. This market includes products such as:

• Vitamins & Nutritional supplements
• Dietary aids, including drink powders
• Muscle building and weight loss supplements
• Nutraceutical products
• Pet and animal health products

Often, products in this sector require climate controlled storage to maximize product shelf life, as well as product tracing for manufacturer expiration dates. Similar to other industries we serve, nutritional and dietary supplements manufacturers are significantly impacted by the trends in online ordering, e-tailing, direct-to-consumer orders and traditional retail outlets.

Subscription box fulfillment

Because most products in the dietary and supplements sector are consumables, the rise of automated, subscription-based orders has become perhaps the biggest trend in recent years.

Subscriptions can come in the form of specialized product configurations as “therapy in a box” every month, or can just include more basic replenishment orders that get shipped to the consumer on a regular weekly or monthly basis.

Subscriptions are a great way for dietary and supplements manufacturers to deliver an exceptional customer experience by ensuring consumers have their products before they ever run out!
