AGS Provides Logistics
Solutions to U.S. Golf
Manufacturer for the Delivery
and Installation of Retail Displays
Distributing over 1,100 displays to retail
stores throughout the U.S. and Canada
NEW HYDE PARK, NY – One of the world’s leading
manufacturers of high performance golf products used AGS’
logistics and freight forwarding solutions to help deliver and install
retail displays in stores across the country.
Tasked with distributing over 1,100 displays to retail stores
throughout the U.S. and Canada, AGS had less than five days to
accomplish this logistical challenge. Pick-ups were performed at 3
different locations on the west coast starting on a Friday, Saturday
and continued on Monday. The deliveries to various retail outlets
and pro shops required lift gate and inside delivery. AGS was able to
successfully accomplish a damage free and on-time delivery experience
in the midst of weather challenges throughout the country.
With a network of over 400 storage sites, AGS can provide
temporary storage of displays to meet specific requirements that
would streamline the display placement at the retail location. With
advance notice AGS can provide specialized labor with experience
in performing light installation at the retail location.
Founded in 1958, AGS provides complete supply chain solutions
specializing in forwarding, transportation, logistics and warehousing.
Key to AGS’ customer centric solutions are innovative and
customizable technology tools that provide a seamless flow of
information and give customers global supply chain visibility.
