Managing SKU Proliferation

Gilchrist & Soames has partnered with WS Packaging since 2005 to develop and print the labels for the majority of its personal care product lines. Since that time, Gilchrist & Soames has used the WebFlex management system, and the impact has been significant.

"In many cases, large companies, like Gilchrist & Soames, don't have an established system in place for graphics asset management," said Chris Doerr, executive director of national sales, WS Packaging. "I've worked with a range of companies whose art files reside with one individual, which can be very risky. With WebFlex, all art files are stored in a single, centralized electronic profile. It's a secure site, password protected, with limited access, which provides a great level of security.
