How Flair Packaging Scaled Shipping With FreightPOP + Microsoft Dynamics

ABOUT FLAIR PACKAGING

A global leader in sustainable flexible packaging solutions for food, beverage, and personal care brands. As international operations expanded, Flair faced growing challenges managing carrier compliance, visibility, and freight documentation across regions.

Running on Microsoft Dynamics 365, Flair needed a connected TMS to automate data flow, streamline documentation, and improve shipment visibility from order to delivery.

The Challenges

  • Disconnected TMS: Previous system lacked integration with Microsoft Dynamics 365 F&O
  • Limited tracking visibility: No PO/SO-level tracking, especially for multi-leg and international shipments
  • Manual compliance work: HS codes and country-of-origin documents managed by hand
  • Carrier onboarding silos: Difficult to add carriers and standardize services across regions
  • Document customization gaps: Packing lists, labels, and BOLs required manual edits
  • Cost control issues: Hard to analyze carrier performance and audit invoices for accuracy
