Cold chain and working capital for an agri-exporter

We integrated the physical cold-chain operation with financial inventory management to reduce spoilage and free up working capital.

The challenge

An agri-exporter was losing product to cold-chain breaks and, at the same time, tying up capital in inventory that wasn't turning. Operational and financial decisions were made in silos.

Our approach

We worked across three dimensions in an integrated way:

  • Redesigned the physical flow and point-to-point temperature controls
  • Connected inventory turnover with working-capital management
  • Set clear protocols and trained the field and plant teams

The result

Spoilage dropped noticeably and the company freed up working capital by syncing production, dispatch and collections. Cold-chain compliance became the rule, not the exception, thanks to protocols the team understands and sustains.
