Not, as you might imagine, the daily delivery of (ahem) 'ink' to Biglorryblog's office but a way of illustrating the fact that Cornwall's St. Austell Brewery (established 1851.....which is not that old considering it's only 20:37 now) is gearing up its distribution performance with a state-of-the-art automated routing and scheduling solution from Paragon Software Systems. The South West's most successful independent brewer, retailer and wholesaler selected Paragon Multi Depot to help streamline and optimise its delivery planning. This will enable the company to reduce the number of its depots in Cornwall from four to one single super distribution centre based in St. Columb Major, with the option to utilise the other depots during peak demand. The company expects to boost customer service levels and reduce operational costs.... if it means they get their pints quicker I can't see any complaints!
Mmmmm....I wonder if it's the tipple of choice for my mate Mr Sheer? He's from Kernow!
