How Nercon Delivered Value to Our Customers in 2025

For CPG manufacturers, 2025 has been a year of sharp contrasts. Consumer demand held strong in some categories but softened in others as shoppers became more price-sensitive and selective. Input costs—especially for packaging, ingredients, and transportation—remained high, putting ongoing pressure on margins. New and shifting tariffs added another layer of uncertainty, driving cost volatility and complicating sourcing decisions.

In this environment, supplier relationships became one of the most critical levers of stability and performance. CPG manufacturers relied heavily on partners who could provide consistent quality, clear communication, and the flexibility to adjust quickly when market conditions shifted. With tariffs, material shortages, and cost pressures reshaping sourcing strategies, dependable suppliers weren’t just helpful—they were a competitive advantage. 

Nercon Solutions Kept Production Moving

Against this backdrop, Nercon delivered value for customers in several key ways, helping them be efficient and agile to stay on schedule with production demands:

Reliable domestic production. Nercon’s Made in the USA advantage mattered more than ever. Customers gained shorter lead times, greater supply-chain stability, and direct access to responsive engineering support. In a year defined by volatility, domestic manufacturing delivered confidence.

Lean execution. Through lean manufacturing, we kept costs down, timelines tight, and quality high throughout 2025. Every improvement we made upstream translated into fewer bottlenecks and smoother planning for our customers. In a year of fluctuating demand and cost pressures, this efficiency made an important difference.

Optimized controls integration. By designing, building, and testing electrical conveyor controls in house, we eliminated coordination delays and delivered tight quality control. Fewer handoffs meant quicker troubleshooting, smoother integration, and systems that helped our customers get up and running sooner and stay running with fewer interruptions.

Trusted conveyor expertise. With so much uncertainty in 2025, CPG manufacturers needed partners who had truly seen it all—and Nercon’s 50 years of conveyor know-how delivered exactly that. Our depth of experience meant we could anticipate issues early, engineer solutions faster, and design systems that performed reliably under real production pressures. Customers leaned on that knowledge to keep lines running, reduce risk, and maintain consistency despite the volatility. 

Industry-leading turnaround times. Nercon’s industry-leading turnaround times gave CPG manufacturers the agility they needed in 2025. We helped customers avoid delays, hit launch dates, and adapt to changing market demands. In a year defined by speed and unpredictability, rapid execution was mission-critical.

Looking ahead, these advantages aren’t one-time wins—they’re the standard our customers can count on every day. Nercon’s speed, expertise, engineering strength, and dependable U.S.-based manufacturing remain firmly in place, ready to support whatever challenges or opportunities 2026 brings. As the market continues to shift, we’re committed to being the reliable, responsive partner CPG manufacturers trust to keep their lines moving and their operations strong.
