Alba WSD

Alba WSD prides itself on threading its core values into its day to day activities and approach to client satisfaction. Embracing these values, Trustworthy, Responsive, Committed, Safety Focused and Entrepreneurial are what led to a recent success story when Palm Bay tasked Alba WSD with framing out a solution to a unique problem. One of Palm Bays' suppliers encountered a quality issue at their bottling facility in Europe, which resulted in over seven thousand bottles of wine having packaging product chemically adhered to the bottle caps, rendering all of the units as unsellable. After exhausting all the "usual ways and means" to attempt and clean the caps failed, Palm Bay asked Alba WSD to think outside the norm and see if they could develop a unique solution to the unique issue at hand. Team Alba WSD quickly swung into action, collaborated internally and externally with repeated tests that ultimately yielded a solution that safely, consistently and affordably enabled all seven thousand bottles to be recouped and repackaged as sellable product in less than four working days once the project was started. "The Alba Wine and Spirits Warehousing and Distribution Team has stepped up and handled everything we could throw at them and more" said Frank Vella, who is responsible for all of Palm Bay's logistics operations. Alba WSD recently obtained US CBP Bonded Warehouse status and now offers Palm Bay and all its clients bonded storage services in addition to the other storage service offerings that include ambient storage, chilled storage and high value storage. Alba WSD continues to make it easy for Palm Bay to partner and scale with a single 3PL that can offer the origin to consumer inventory accountability, warehousing, value added services and complete distribution. To do this, the Alba WSD Team has created and continuously balances its integrated operating platform of people, process and systems to proactively address Palm Bays needs while using real-time data to assist in making the most informed and efficient decisions based on relevant supply chain data analysis.
