Case Study: Empowering Schlafly Beer’s Seasonal Success with JSI’s Fulfillment Expertise
The Problem
With the increasing popularity of Schlafly’s seasonal variety packs, the brewery required a solution that would alleviate the burden of assembly while ensuring the quality of their products remained high. The labor-intensive process of packing multiple beer varieties into a single pack was taking valuable time away from the brewing process. Schlafly sought a partner capable of handling fulfillment with efficiency, precision, and attention to detail.
The Solution
Schlafly contacted JSI to discuss the possibility of outsourcing the assembly of their variety packs. JSI quickly responded with a competitive price quote and a confident, can-do attitude. Their approach demonstrated an understanding of Schlafly’s needs, offering a streamlined solution that ensured a seamless transition for the brewery.
JSI’s expertise in assembly and fulfillment shone during the first run of Schlafly’s seasonal packs, where their dedicated team handled every detail meticulously, from organizing the different beer varieties to ensuring the packs were ready for distribution on time. This initial success led to a lasting partnership between JSI and Schlafly, with JSI continuing to assemble new seasonal products for the brewery.
The Results
Over the past two years, JSI’s fulfillment partnership with Schlafly has helped the brewery meet and exceed the growing demand for their seasonal packs.
