What is Direct Store Delivery (DSD)?
The regular delivery of a vast array of consumer package
goods (CPG) to retail stores around the world. Soft

STEP 1
Drivers from the Manufacturing/Distribution
company arrive at a local distribution center
or warehouse. Using a handheld they
download the day's route, inventory, and
pricing information -- a process that may take
2-5 minutes per route.
STEP 2
The drivers then count their load to be sure the
proper inventory is aboard for that day's
deliveries. Then, they head out on the road to
make their round to retail stores.
