The Event Stands Out for Its Interactivity, Connecting People and Providing Unique Experiences from End to End Logistics

Bringing relevant content to the 30th edition of the Logistics Workshop, Solutions, and Trends is one of the objectives of the Logistic Panel Group and AO Solutions by once again bringing the technical congress, considered the largest itinerant logistics workshop in the Brazilian market, to Itajaí. The event is free and takes place on November 8, from 8:30 AM to 4 PM, at Centreventos Itajaí. The Secretary of Economic Development and Tourism is a partner in the event.

The workshop will cover topics related to logistics and supply chain, bringing to the region the expertise of companies that have logistics as their competitive edge. Among the topics addressed will be logistics structuring for growth, which will be presented along with a case from PetCamp, by consultant Luís Carlos Martão, co-founder of ILOGG Logistics Intelligence.

In this case, the specialist will showcase the logistics transformation of PetCamp to become one of the references in the pet segment in the country. A journey that involves everything from the strategic design of the supply chain, through store and e-commerce replenishment models, new processes and technologies, team structuring, new distribution center, and the new transport network.

PetCamp was founded in 1995 and is now established as the largest pet shop chain in São Paulo. The brand’s expansion plan foresees the opening of 200 more stores in the next 5 years. Currently, there are 44 stores, spread across different cities in the interior of the State. In addition to physical stores, e-commerce accounts for an important share of the group’s revenue.

Lean Methodology

Fábio Teixeira, general logistics manager at Cassol Centerlar, will address the application of Lean methodology in retail operations for construction materials. Fábio adds that using this methodology allows for efficiency gains and service levels, transforming logistics into a sales-promoting tool.

“Logistics has undergone a transformation over the years, and after the pandemic, it has taken on a central and fundamental role in commercial strategies,” points out the specialist. Fábio further states that logistics today is directly responsible for the main decision-making, not only for the company but especially for the customer. “Thus, having an operation with processes focused on customer needs is what transforms logistics from being a detractor to being a sales promoter.”

Cassol Centerlar is the retail arm of the Cassol Group. There are 31 stores and three distribution centers in the Southern region, with 40,000 items and 14 exclusive brand lines. The company is the 1st in Southern Brazil in the construction materials sector, the 5th largest retail company for building materials in the country, and the company in the South with the largest ready-to-deliver stock. In addition to physical sales, the sales channels include e-commerce, telemarketing, and direct sales to businesses, builders, and condominiums.

Israel Lima, executive head of logistics solutions at Rise Consulting, will speak about the importance of service levels in industries, aligned with technology, and present a case from Trol Alimentos. The company has production units in Santa Catarina and outsourced units in Rio Grande do Sul, Paraná, and Goiás. The dairy company operates with a complex logistics system that involves daily collection of millions of liters of milk from thousands of partner producers, up to distribution at points of sale across the country. Rise Consulting, in turn, is a consulting and services firm specializing in business management, acting in areas of strategy, management [of people, processes, projects, finance, and operations], and operational efficiency.

Also confirmed are presentations of cases from Boticário, Renner, In Haus, JBS, Eldorado Celulose, and Porto de Suape. In the solutions area, the companies Serviap, Fronius, SDS Properties, Cargomax, Valgroup, Michelin, Radke Solutions, Telamarck, Elo Logística, and W3 Industria will be represented.
