ELA Award 2020 from the audience for Best Presentation of the Year goes to INTERLOG GROUP, France.
MG2+ is a collaborative project with four competing manufacturers (Carambar&Co, Cémoi, Ferrero, and Mondelez) and two logistics providers (Interlog Logistic and FM Logistic) with a common objective to reduce the number of trucks on the roads and gas emissions.
This innovative process of EDI pooling can mutualize trucks for the retailers and other distribution channels. This process aligns the orders of a retailer with the same delivery date for all four manufacturers in the pool.
It is well suited for retail companies that do not work in shared VMI. This collaboration is made possible thanks to the management of the EDI pooling process by Interlog Logistic control tower with the support of a dedicated software.
