Unicoms Logistics Case Study: Enhancing Customer Experience & Efficiency for ProTrade Distributors

Introduction

ProTrade Distributors, a rapidly growing Distribution company based in Philippines, was facing significant challenges in their logistics operations. Their primary concerns were a lack of visibility into their shipments, slow response times from their previous logistics provider, and a growing number of customer complaints regarding order status and delivery updates. Recognizing the need for a more responsive and customer-centric logistics partner, ProTrade Distributors partnered with Unicoms Logistics.

Challenges

ProTrade Distributors faced the following critical challenges:

1. Limited Visibility: Their previous logistics provider lacked a robust tracking system, leaving them in the dark about the status and location of their shipments. This made it difficult to proactively address delays or provide accurate updates to customers.
2. Slow Response Times: Queries and requests for updates often took days to be addressed by their previous provider, leading to frustration and a negative impact on customer satisfaction.
3. Poor Customer Engagement: The lack of timely communication and transparency created a disconnect between ProTrade Distributors and their customers, resulting in increased complaints, lost sales, and damaged brand reputation.
