Batteries Plus Bulbs (Hartland, WI)<br />

Uniform cost reduction for 600+ privately owned stores<br />

Uniform Shirts<br />

Batteries Plus Bulbs had been using the same standard core uniform<br />

shirt for almost 15 years. Approaching their VP of Marketing, Blue<br />

Fuel Marketing presented a strategy to significantly reduce the system's<br />

annual spend requirements by diving deeper into the supply chain.<br />

With direct-to-factory relationships, as well as having inspectors at<br />

the factory level for quality control, testing and social compliance, we<br />

refined the strategic procurement process while mitigating the risks<br />

common to direct importing. A critical capability for performance and<br />

bottom line profitability in today's economy.<br />

Blue Fuel Marketing designed, sampled, tested, produced, as well as<br />

managed customs and logistics for the importing of over 7,000 custom<br />

uniform shirts annually. In doing so, we were able to reduce the cost of<br />

core uniform shirts by over 45%. A reduction that results in system wide<br />

savings in excess of $52,000 annually.<br />
