| 摘要： | As a global leader in the personal care and professional products industries, Kimberly-Clark Corp. takes its supply chain operations very seriously. After all, its paper-based consumer products are essential to the daily lives of millions of people worldwide. With recognizable brands like Kleenex, Cottonelle and Huggies-to name just a few-in its product portfolio, the 151-year-old company has 45,000 employees and more than $20 billion in annual revenues.In North America, Kimberly-Clark is continually working to improve, digitalize, and optimize its end-to-end distribution network, which encompasses all manufacturing sites, 10 major distribution centers (DCs), and shipping points throughout the United States and Canada.On a daily basis, Kimberly-Clark's operations ship anywhere from 1,100 to 1,500 truckload equivalents of product outbound to its various sites. Roughly 55% to 60% of those goods are shipped direct to customers, while the remaining volume is used to replenish the manufacturer's inventory, both at producing and non-producing sites. |
