The Challenge

A large manufacturer of outdoor furniture using recycled plastic materials was placing large orders and sourcing from a single supplier in China. Because of this, they faced challenges with long lead times on imported parts.

  • Process orders in partial quantities for faster delivery
  • Diversify suppliers 
  • Replace specialty coating with alternative coating that can be applied stateside

The Results

BRF helped the manufacturer reduce risk and build supply chain resilience

UP TO $5.5 MILLION SAVED ANNUALLY BY MOVING SECONDARY PROCESSING TO U.S.
