May 08, 2017: In a bid to empower its expanding global logistics services operation, Yusen Logistics has deployed Manhattan Associates’ warehouse and distribution management solution ‘Manhattan SCALE’.
The solution being implemented on the Microsoft Azure cloud platform is reportedly driving revenue, profitability and efficiency improvements for Yusen Logistics and its customers. It is also likely to support Yusen Logistics’ ongoing business growth across the Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA), Asia-Pacific (APAC) and Americas regions.
Yusen Logistics offers air, sea and road freight services and made the decision to standardise on a single warehouse management solution (WMS) to be deployed globally and provide consistency of service levels.
During the initial implementations in Southern Europe, Yusen Logistics reported zero issues relating to either Azure or Manhattan SCALE.
According to reports, the company plans to use Manhattan SCALE for the full gamut of local and global customer order fulfilment operations, spanning relatively small, single site distribution hubs to multi-site, multi-channel, high volume throughput supply networks.
