Netstock launched Container Builder, a new module that transforms Netstock order recommendations into container-optimized shipments.
Container Builder helps businesses bridge the gap between inventory planning and real-world shipping constraints by building around container limits, such as volume, weight, and capacity, before orders are placed.
"In smaller businesses with leaner teams, the person placing orders is often the same person managing forecasts, supplier relationships, and costs," says Ara Ohanian, CEO of Netstock. "As supply chains become more complex and margins remain under pressure, teams have less time and less room for inefficiency. Container Builder helps customers move faster from recommendation to shipment-ready supplier orders while ensuring every shipment reflects real-world constraints and current inventory needs."
Key takeaways:
· Container Builder automates that final stage by packing items into optimized containers and applying different optimization strategies based on business goals, whether that means maximizing margin, minimizing excess inventory, improving product mix, or making the best use of available container space.
· Users maintain full control and can refine allocations before finalizing. Once ready, orders can be exported as a single shipment or split by container based on ERP requirements.
