Packaging & Fulfillment

As a turnkey solutions provider, at Hofmann Industries, Inc., we handle the manufacturing, assembly, packaging, and fulfillment of the log racks highlighted here.

Problem
One of our customers secured a contract with a major U.S. lawn & garden catalog retailer for furnishing these log racks. The company’s successful bid for this work was contingent upon them being able to contain costs, maintain strict inventory levels, and source all of the components domestically.

Solution
With our vertically integrated capabilities, we had all the resources to support the end-to-end, “Made in the U.S.A.” manufacturing requirements. To accomplish the project, we first assembled a team of engineers, production staff, and procurement specialists to develop an optimal manufacturing planning and control system. We tapped into our streamlined, automated methods for tube forming, pressing, and bending to shape the tubular components, which we finished with a strong, durable, and weather-resistant textured black powder-coated finish. Our procurement specialists sourced all of the non-tube elements, including the nylon caps and other hardware needed for product assembly, and we implemented a custom, consumer-ready packaging line.

Results
By leveraging our strength as a manufacturer of premium quality steel tubing, scheduling production down to the machine and labor level, and expertly managing the stocking levels for the finished products and all of its subcomponents, we helped contain costs and reduce lead time. With our team-based approach, we attained the speed and efficiency needed to supply approximately 8,000 units annually. We process each order within two weeks and keep inventory on hand to fulfill orders in no more than 24 hours. The quality is always first-rate, and we have never missed a delivery date.
