Competitive Stance Khaled and his teams have identified where the clear challenges lie for the business and , thinking laterally , have been able to transform these potential setbacks into a competitive advantage , he said : “ The challenge for us in exporting to 26 countries is always logistics because we transport by weight and volume , this is a burden to move products from Saudi to Europe to North Africa – it takes land as well as ocean and sometimes even air freight . With this in mind we designed for every profile to reduce the volume during shipping .”
Despite the recent slump in the global commodities market ALUPCO is poised to make significant gains , both in terms of its productivity , but also through increasing its market share . Once again management has leveraged a potential problem to its advantage . Khaled said : “ Going forward , we will be giving better solutions and changing the way we buy and sell , and order commodities , as well as communicating with our customers more dynamically .”
