The Real Cost of Late Deliveries (And How to Avoid It)
The Real Cost of Late Deliveries (And How to Avoid It)
In logistics, being “almost on time” is the same as being late —
and lateness costs much more than money.
At SamJake Logistics, we know that late deliveries can damage your business in ways that spreadsheets can’t calculate.
That’s why we deliver not just goods, but business continuity and customer trust.
💸 What Late Deliveries Really Cost Your Business
- Lost Sales:
Customers won’t wait. They’ll switch to competitors who can deliver faster. - Damaged Reputation:
Inconsistent delivery performance tarnishes your brand’s reliability. - Operational Disruptions:
Late components halt production lines. Late inventory leaves store shelves empty. - Financial Penalties:
Missed deadlines often trigger fines or lost contract bonuses. - Customer Churn:
Customers might forgive once. Rarely twice.
