Conversion Strategies In Industrial Logistics

ROD Industrial Logistics joins ROD Corporate, ROD Private Equity, ROD Retail, and ROD Chains to form a wavelength on getting the most desirable judgment on a profitable conversion.

Logistics is continuously evolving, the supply chain policies and distribution methodologies are growing and improving to generate more added value to the entire process. losing sight of this fact can have a tremendous impact on the ever-growing process to be established, if the company is to survive.

A traditional warehouse is often transformed into a distribution center or even a retail chain platform, logistics actors looking to reduce capital costs, and streamline warehousing and delivery flows are prone to stay competitive and achieve the best performance.

Such instances have to be taken seriously, through insightful planning, and rigorous management, different scenarios can be identified for future repurposing.

Supply Chain Cross-functional Specialist

Many clients with underperforming and cost heavy assets, or assets that lack the management that leads to successful exploitation of the business, have chosen ROD Investments when they needed reliable partners. We believe our teams are masterful in solving a wide range of regulatory hiccups as well as refining business models even the ones that are held back by above board or KPI constraints. Hotels can be converted into a revenue generator such as a high yield senior housing facility or apartments, dormant office properties can be converted into hotels and warehouses for retail.
 
Our clients can benefit from the level of expertise unlocked by our ROD team specialised in repurposings by collaborating with our stand-alone, yet synergy-rich divisions i.e. ROD Seniors, ROD Medical, ROD M&A and many other divisions. A couple of such examples that prove we walk the walk too is where we converted a Hotel into Senior Home in a prominent location all while pulling in resources from other divisions to maintain and even improve all the ROCEs.

Some Examples Of Successful Conversion Strategies In Adverse Situations Include :

Manufacturing Business Unit

  • Following a critical increase in storage costs, due to the spare parts’ high obsolescence rate, and inventory low turnover, the storage space was repurposed to be a picking-kitting area.
  • The company has gained in terms of added value operations and improved its economy of scale by outsourcing inventory management to an external distribution center.

Cross-docking

  • Due to a low density in terms of a catchment area, a cross-dock has seen its revenue decreasing drastically.
  • To take advantage of the transport shortage, the cross-dock has been turned into a carrier, the inventory space served as a storage area for spare parts, and the business model has augmented its working capital.

Logistics Hub

  • To increase the usability and the roi due to low demand and oversized logistics platform, the business model has been repurposed to serve as a 3rd and 4th party operator.
  • Providing tailored services to several customers, the company has gained the best occupancy rate, and improved its cash flow.
