Pan-European Discount Retailer
The Problem
Needed 1.2 million FSC-certified HB pencils, delivered to 5 distribution centres across 6 countries within a 6-week window, with SRP shelf-ready packaging and EN71-3 compliance documentation per batch. Previous supplier's BSCI audit had lapsed, blocking the entire seasonal programme 3 weeks before the production window.
What We Did
We provided BSCI Grade C (amfori DBID verified) + FSC-COC ESTS-COC-251233 documentation within 24 hours. Dedicated 2 production lines for 3 weeks — slat receiving to finished pallet in a single continuous run. 100% AQL 2.5 pre-shipment inspection via SGS, FSC transaction certificates per container, consolidated logistics with 5-port DC routing.
