ERA Helps Fall Creek Improve Packaging While Saving $165,000

New Packaging Solution Enhances Business Operations and Savings

Dave and Barbara Brazleton founded fall Creek Farm & Nursery in 1978. The client's focus is on developing high-quality blueberry plants for fruit growers. Fall Creek has established itself as a wholesale supplier of genetics and blueberry nursery stock. Packaging is an essential element of their business operations. During harvest season, damaged shipments are unable to be replaced. As a result, maintaining exceptional product quality through transport is critical.

Consultants with ERA negotiated with a new supplier to identify ways to improve transport for Fall Creek's live plants while keeping quality intact. A new packaging solution was formed, which resulted in annual savings for two cost categories. Overall, ERA exceeded the client's expectations and even sparked ideas for new business operation initiatives.
