“We have coops going to Ireland, Hawaii, Australia and Europe. Everyone wants our coops. But it’s so expensive to ship our pallets over there. We were getting killed on freight costs. Ernest came in with a solution that allowed us to stack three coops on one pallet and saved us a bunch of money in the process.”
Gnon Choi
Sales Manager/Wonder Woman, Carolina Coops“We were ready to pull the plug on selling and shipping to the East Coast. Finding packaging that’s both sustainable and temperature-controlled is not easy, and the cost was sky high. The Ernest team came in and really owned this, allowing us to reformulate our product offerings by changing the container.”
Rob Paladino
