The New Warehouse Podcast EP 594: A Skinny Pallet Jack, Big Savings, and the Power of Innovation
In this episode of The New Warehouse Podcast, Kevin chats with Dan Betz, Executive Vice President of Operations at Andrews Distributing, a family-owned beer and spirits distributor serving 13,000 customers with over 45 million cases delivered annually. Based in Dallas-Fort Worth and Corpus Christi, Andrews is known for its commitment to continuous improvement and operational innovation.
Dan shares how a costly inefficiency in their direct-store-delivery model led them to co-develop a custom solution: the Skinny Pallet and Skinny Pallet Jack. This unique approach to delivery logistics, enabled through a partnership with Big Joe and Peninsula Pallets, not only slashes waste but also enhances service for both customers and drivers.
