Kenco, a third-party logistics (3PL) provider, has announced the launch of its new contract packaging division, enhancing its end-to-end supply chain solutions with a focus on secondary packaging.

The new division aims to streamline customer operations by offering comprehensive contract packaging services.

These include retail-ready packaging and displays, assembly, fulfilment and e-commerce, promotional and speciality packaging, labelling and compliance, and process optimisation and continuous improvement.

Kenco CEO Denis Reilly said: “Kenco’s customers have long counted our comprehensive range of 3PL capabilities as one of our key differentiators, and today we’ve made our offerings even stronger.

“Customers no longer need a separate step in their supply chain to package durable goods - we’ve streamlined packaging, so customers can streamline their operations.”

This strategic move reinforces Kenco’s role as a one-stop shop for supply chain management.

Group vice-president Rob Doyle will oversee the new division, supported by a team with over a century of combined packaging experience.

The division will concentrate on assisting clients in implementing lean practices and leveraging real-time data to improve packaging efficiency and lower costs.

Additionally, the team will work to automate and optimise processes to boost performance and reduce waste.

Doyle said: “Everything we do at Kenco is designed to make our customers’ supply chains more efficient. This new division will provide users the right packaging to make their products pop on the shelves while cutting costs and improving sustainability.”
