Onsite Inventory Management:

Imagine if all the industrial supply parts you needed for your food and beverage facilities were always exactly where you needed them – and they never ran out. When you select one of Van Meter’s onsite inventory management solutions, we make it happen:

• Jobsite trailers stocked with industrial supplies you need most. We’ll check inventory levels, and restock them regularly to prevent you from making trips back to the warehouse.
• Customized mobile cribs (inventory supply boxes) filled with the industrial supplies you specify, then delivered to wherever they’re needed within your food and beverage plant.
• Managing your food and beverage industrial supply inventory; we’ll organize all industrial supplies and regularly check to replenish stock.

National Accounts:

With regional and national reach when it comes to service and price, we offer national food and beverage companies all the benefits of working with an extremely large distributor – but without the feel of talking to a call center when you need assistance. We have supplies and resources to serve food and beverage companies on a local or national scale, but still offer personal, customized support – no matter what.
