Increasing Profit and Decreasing Environmental Impact for Leading Automotive Dealership
The client, a leading automotive dealership chain with heavy presence throughout all of Japan, wanted to both increase profit and to decrease environmental impact by introducing recycling of lead-acid batteries.
ARC Consulting was asked to develop and implement a comprehensive recycling system for the client, effectively creating a closed loop for lead-acid batteries in Japan, harnessing both financial and environmental benefits.
Approach
ARC Consulting initiated the process by mapping and analysing the distribution of the client´s lead-acid batteries, thus developing a framework of where to target the re-collection efforts. A comprehensive strategy was developed to create a cost loop for lead-acid batteries, so that most parts were recycled and resold, thus generating a substantial profit increase.
Further, an incentives system was designed and implemented to encourage the return of used batteries, as well as a new logistics system with an external partner contracted to collect and deliver used batteries for recycling.
