Pallet Pooling at Lidl: Optimizing from Manufacturer to Store
CHEP and Lidl have been collaborating on pallet pooling since 2003. This case study will present the concrete results of their long-term partnership and demonstrate how smart management of pallet flows optimizes logistics processes from the manufacturer, through the distribution center, to the store. The collaboration reduces CO₂ emissions by over 1,000 tons annually, cuts waste by 108 tons, and saves enough wood to correspond to 662 trees. The presentation will highlight not only the environmental benefits but also the practical impacts on operational efficiency, supply chain stability, and collaboration with other partners.
