Wal-Mart Unveils Packaging Scorecard

Suppliers will receive an overall score relative to other suppliers, as well as relative scores in each category.

More than 2,000 private label brand suppliers will gain access to the packaging scorecard, including the ability to input information and measure their performance against competitors. For all other suppliers, an automated online demonstration is available at www.scorecardlibrary.com. An additional Web site, www.marketgate.com/packaging, showcasing the Packaging Supplier Virtual Trade show, will also help product suppliers find packaging suppliers who can help them make improvements and conserve resources more effectively.
