Value Added Services
Our experience has shown us that businesses have
additional requirements outside of conventional logistics
that need to be serviced, what we refer to as value added
services. By designing and tailoring customised solutions,
we can also offer clients additional services that can
significantly help their own internal processes.

Product Inspections
100% Product Inspections
Providing 100% product inspections on arrival into storage where quality issues may have been compromised and
unchecked by the client internally.
Key Features:
• Scanning
• X-Ray
When the finished item comes off the production
line it should be inspected to ensure that it
conforms to the required quality standards. Our
checks are tailored made and customer specific to
include not only the finished good itself but the
packaging used to ship it to the customer. If the
packaging is damaged or not correctly labeled
then our operators can rectify the issue.
Packaging Modifications
Relabeling
McArdle Skeath provides relabeling services when our customers requires the relabeling of stored product.
We ensure that every step of the relabeling process is carried out correctly and seamlessly.
Our extensive regulatory experience and regional support assures that relabeling is completed according to
every country’s individual regulations. Our relabeling teams are aware of and rigorously follow all
packaging guidelines.
Rebranding
Our Warehouse Support services are often called on to manage client’s re-branding activities. This is a
critical process to ensure newly branded product reaches its destination in time to meet advertising
campaign launches. Also that dated collateral is secure and accounted for prior to secure destruction or rework to the new brand.
Resizing
We can quickly and cost-effectively resize and repack products for efficient consolidation, storing and
shipping. Your business can rest assured that your product arrives in the quality condition you expect,
therefore protecting your brand and your brand promise.
Inventory Control
We provide clients with an inventory control service linked to their production
line allowing JIT (Just in Time) stock replenishment reducing onsite costs.
Customer Needs
Balancing the goals of avoiding stock outs while minimising inventory costs is at the heart of
just-in-time inventory. One of the main benefits of our automated and efficient inventory
replenishment systems is that you can quickly respond to reduced inventory levels. Our
customers are now equipped to pull back on stock in a given product category and ramp up
inventory in another as customer needs and interests change.
Product Line Trials
This provides clients with a mock production line whereby they can replicate the
manufacturing process of new products without effecting a “live” production line.
Line Trials
McArdle Skeath are experienced in creating replicated/new product lines. We take the
responsibility of determining whether the product line should expand and whether products
should be removed from the line. We can also analyse the effects of the product expansion or
contraction on the profitability of other products in the line.

As a global leader in supply chain logistics, McArdle Skeath has a long history of working with
corporate companies, from small suppliers to global finished-goods powerhouses. With so much
visibility into this market, we’ve noticed that companies have varying degrees of success
managing reverse logistics—as well as varying degrees of missed opportunities when not paying
attention to this part of the total supply chain.
We’ve helped customers achieve greater sales through resale or
realise savings by reclaiming parts for their operations and save
time and resources through disposition of product that was surplus
to requirements. While a greater investment in reverse logistics will
yield more benefits, we’re confident that many companies can
experience significant improvements if they liaise with our
warehouse operations team.
We are problem solvers.
