Case study

CONSUMER ELECTRONICS

The client was a small consumer electronics start-up company. They have subsequently grown significantly and now turnover c. USD $80m p.a., with Horizon International supporting their growth and new market entry throughout.

Their initial production run in Southern China was the result of a highly successful crowdfunding campaign through Kickstarter. Their initial Kickstarter target was to raise $100,000, however their final achieved funding hit $1.5million – 15 times their original projection.

Therefore, they had to produce 15 times as many units and deliver these directly to 15,000 consumers around the globe.

Case study

PHARMACEUTICALS

The client was a midsized US Distributor of Medical Equipment, who had experienced significant and rapid growth over the previous 3 years. The client sourced from multiple suppliers in the Far East.

Supply Chain processes which had been fit for purpose 3 years ago had proven not to be scalable and as a result, the client had experienced a range of challenges in terms of visibility, control and cost management.

Case study

Automotive sector

A world leader in automotive production, the company manufacturers and retails commercial and private vehicles on a global scale.

Having served this company for a number of years, providing distribution services for spare parts to a manufacturing facility in Asia across multiple suppliers in the UK, Horizon International were approached to support a significant expansion in volumes required for a new model launch in Asia.

The customer had taken the decision to flex its manufacturing capabilities in the UK whilst enhancing its capability closer to the local market. As such this would improve initial speed to market and ensure availability at launch.
