A lot of marketing money is invested in the beauty industry and the impact of campaigns is often short and fleeting. BizBloqs understands perfectly how important it is to have the right stock in the right places to maximize the results of such campaigns. That is why BizBloqs has developed many features to address the complexity of the logistic requirements and for deep insight in stock movements and management.
A streamlined order and delivery solution throughout the widespread beauty distribution network serves the industry to perfection, as our customers will attest.
Many beauty products require expiry dates and this also strains the logistic processes as does stock management. BizBloqs has the ability to tune your workflow for the optimal shipment of products to minimize waste and keep a consistent retail assortment of products on the shelves.
BizBloqs can register and consider all relevant information, including conditions required to maintain products in their most pristine shape and form. Requirements that can include temperature and humidity restrictions can all be processed, linked to the right products and guided by a strict quality management protocol to safeguard the customer experience when using such products.
Of course it is always possible that protocols have not been followed correctly or an error of sorts has occurred. Identify problems upon receipt with custom QC processes, featuring image capture and email communication directly from the device to the relevant supplier contact with solutions provided by BizBloqs.
Our technology platform can implement and track quality requirements and all other elements of the logistics flows to retail stores and e-commerce sales channels, which ensures maximization of your selling windows and margins.
The BizBloqs technology platform is a beautiful fit for the beauty industry, minimizing the number of product touches, efficient processing of any order size and optimized returns handling.
In our experience it is critical to be able to trace batches, whether it is from the production line or through the distribution channels. Many beauty products have expiration dates and need to be shipped based on First Expiry, First Out (FEFO) principles. Should there have been any issue that requires a recall, BizBloqs makes it possible to limit the risk and damage only to the specific affected batch or even article. In the more positive case of business as usual, the deep insights and awareness of stock levels and inventory value provide a great tool for running an optimized business.
BizBloqs also integrates with retail POS systems, allowing you to track down that last piece of a specific product on the customer’s behalf in the shortest and most efficient way.
Both your store personnel and your customers will appreciate how you take customer service to a different level.
Batch and PAO data are needed for compliance but held off-system
Batch, production date and period-after-opening captured at receipt and enforced through picking and dispatch
Gift sets and bundles are assembled without stock consequence
Sets built against a defined structure that consumes components and creates a sellable item with its own stock record
Hazardous and flammable items are stored by convention, not by rule
Storage and transport constraints configured per item and enforced at put-away, picking and carrier selection
Promotional peaks overwhelm a manual picking process
Campaign volume grouped into waves and batches so a launch is planned capacity rather than an emergency
Marketplace listings drift out of sync with real availability
One stock position published outward in real time, with per-channel buffers on the platforms that punish cancellations
Work through the 18-point WMS Requirements Checklist and your answers point to SME, SME+ or Enterprise.

When we had extensive logistic requirements beyond the capabilities of our financial solution, BizBloqs shared its expertise to transform Lantaarn’s entire warehouse experience together

We needed a better, more transparent and practical system for our incoming and outgoing product flow. A direct overview in our stock and all our logistics movements was really a must. BizBloqs helped us from the start!
Rik Klein - Sales manager
In addition to a scan procedure with EDI integration, BizBloqs has set up an entire production system for us. Production planning can provide direct instructions and as soon as they are ready, it all arrives in the OMS. This gives us a larger production capacity and a drastic reduction of the picking mistakes in dispatching.
