Mondelez International Australia My name is Camillo Degrazia and I am the Sourcing Manager responsible for Pallets for Mondelez International Australia (formerly Cadbury and Kraft). I would like to highly recommend the services of Lyn Chapman and her team, in particular David Snowball. During the last 12 months our company engaged with them to support the transformation of how we manage our pallets across 7 National sites. They developed the SOPs, escalation policy with CHEP, contacts lists & work procedures for all our sites. When we started we had approx. 20,000 lost pallets in our system and 500 lost Pallecon items which meant facing a potential liability of about $1million dollars. The dead rental on this was about $340k per annum. As a result of the work that Lyn and David did, we have been able to recover the TOTAL amount of lost pallets & most of the Pallecon items. Lyn and David continue to support us on a monthly basis with reconciliations, stocktake coordination & process improvement. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Lyn and her team if you need support in managing your relationship with CHEP. Camillo Degrazia

McCormick Foods Australia Pty Ltd. McCormick Foods in Clayton Vic, has been utilizing the professional services of Lyn Chapman & Associates Pty. Ltd, for both its CHEP & Loscam pallet accounts since 2000. Lyn Chapman & Associates successfully recovered many lost plastic pallets in their initial role for McCormick Foods – from there, Lyn and her friendly staff have assisted McCormick’s with the writing and implementation of equipment control procedures, offsite processing of dockets, compilation and auditing of stocktakes, as well as training our various Pallet Controllers. Our two companies have developed a solid business relationship over the past 10 years and I truly value the open and honest 2-way communication that their company consistently displays. Lyn and her staff are knowledgeable and customer focused, being quick to assist their customers in any way they can, whether by telephone, email or a personal visit to your site. In essence, Lyn Chapman & Associates Pty. Ltd have taken away our worry of managing our CHEP & Loscam equipment. Warren Salisbury
