Hardware supply chains are defined by three variables: range, weight, and urgency. From fast-moving consumables to bulky, high-density industrial items, hardware suppliers must navigate a diverse product mix across metro, regional, and remote locations.

In an industry where a late delivery can stall a construction site or leave a retail shelf empty, logistics is the heartbeat of the business. Clique Logistics partners with hardware suppliers to turn fragmented shipping into a streamlined, consistent distribution network.

The modern business landscape is characterised by a relentless pace, evolving consumer expectations, and a constant battle for competitive advantage. For Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs), navigating these complexities can be particularly challenging, especially when it comes to the final leg of delivery. Last-mile logistics, the critical but often costly process of getting products from a distribution hub to the end customer, has become a significant pain point. Escalating surcharges, driven by a confluence of factors, are increasingly squeezing SME profit margins, threatening their ability to compete. However, a strategic paradigm shift towards “elastic logistics” offers SMEs a powerful, often overlooked, weapon to combat these rising costs and thrive in a dynamic market. This article explores how adopting an elastic approach to logistics can transform delivery challenges into opportunities, providing SMEs with the agility and resilience needed to succeed.

Packaging businesses are the unsung heroes of the global economy. When packaging stops moving, production lines freeze, warehouses hit capacity, and the entire downstream supply chain feels the ripple effect.
In this sector, freight is not a support function—it is a competitive advantage. At Clique Logistics, we partner with packaging manufacturers and distributors to transform logistics from a point of friction into a driver of growth.
