GCL Group’s teams of consultants are defined as follow:
- Supply Chain, to measure the efficiency of our clients’ operations – Support your team in the procurement process, contract negotiation and supplier evaluation. This can be developed further by analyzing your current inventory level, product rationalization and purchasing parameters.

Our team of experts can develop multiple scenarios through simulation to optimize the inventory flow within your distribution network for the lowest cost and highest service level.
- Warehouse and Distribution Center, to design, automate and continuously improve our clients’ warehouse practices– Review and optimize your warehouse configuration to maximize the space, productivity and safety of your operations based on our knowledge of the latest trends in warehouse equipment and automation.

- Training and Coaching, to stay ahead of best practices and train the teams – We developed multiple supply chain webinars and classes to support our clients in the growth of their supply chain knowledge. We also carry out tailor-made coaching sessions for specific needs and finally we organize two events each year dedicated to the role of supply chain in the industry where several leaders present the challenges and best practices in place in their compagnies.
- Interim management, to provide the necessary resources to carry out specific projects– With our team of experts, we can carry out long term projects with our clients who are suffering from the lack of workforce.
