CASE STUDY

Ensuring vehicle availability for B2B distribution of construction materials.

This regional distributor of construction materials sought to secure its shipments to building professionals, with goods that were sometimes bulky and subject to tight deadlines. Faced with unpredictable demand, the top priority was to guarantee a vehicle for every order, even for last-minute emergencies. Thanks to a vehicle availability rate of 99.98%, our team enabled same-day or next-day pickups in Calvados and neighboring regions.
