Result
26% lower freight cost
  • 26% lower freight cost.
  • International logistics assignment across several markets.

Swedish Match Industries manufactures and distributes across several markets. Freight in such a structure consists of many moving parts — modes, routing, volumes, surcharges and pricing models — and the total cost is built from details that each look reasonable on their own.

ERA Group worked the category using international market knowledge and comparative data, reaching a 26% saving on freight. An international perspective matters here: pricing in a freight category does not follow one domestic market alone.

The case study is published by ERA Group and refers to ERA Group's engagement.

Why it is relevant

Relevant for manufacturers with export or multi-country distribution, where freight cost is split across many flows and suppliers.

Source and attribution

This is an ERA Group case study, not an assignment carried out by JMF Europe. JMF Europe works within ERA Group and uses the same methodology, category specialists and market data. The results relate to that company's circumstances and are not an outcome promise.

Next step

Propose a time for a first 15-minute Teams meeting.

We briefly look at which external costs are most relevant and decide together whether any category is worth exploring further. No preparation needed.
