The Kenya Association of Manufacturers (KAM) has stepped up efforts to strengthen supply chain efficiency through practical training on modern warehousing, inventory and logistics management.
KAM conducted a Gemba-based training at Mitchell Cotts Group Ltd, a warehousing and logistics facility based at JKIA, giving participants an opportunity to learn directly from real-world operations.
The training covered lean warehousing, material flow, quality assurance, traceability, key performance indicators, automation, artificial intelligence readiness and 5S, with a focus on improving productivity, safety and operational efficiency.
