Puma implements highly automated DC in the USA

Posted on Thursday 21 November 2024

The distribution centre in Phoenix, Arizona will allow the brand to increase daily order fulfilment from 100,000 to 200,000 units.

PUMA HAS launched the facility in partnership with systems integrator Bastian Solutions and technology provider AutoStore.

PUMA North America president Bob Philion, says: “At PUMA, our mantra is forever faster, and AutoStore enables us to be the fastest we’ve ever been.

“With the rise of eComm, we’re seeing a higher volume of orders moving through our facilities, in addition to more frequent surges in demand. Our continued partnership with AutoStore and Bastian Solutions allows us to maintain this rapid pace.”

AutoStore’s cubic storage and retrieval system has been the default automated fulfillment solution integrated with PUMA’s warehouse operations since 2015, serving distribution facilities in Indiana and California. Bastian Solutions has implemented the AutoStore system from the planning phase to execution on-site. As a result, PUMA has accelerated order fulfillment with 99% accuracy, scaled up warehouse capacity by 10X during peak times, and improved delivery times from two weeks to the same day.

AutoStore’s automated storage and retrieval solution uses a cube-based modular storage system with state-of-the-art robots and excellent software to improve operational efficiency. 

AutoStore CEO Mats Hovland Vikse, says: “Our partnership with PUMA exemplifies how our solution is perfectly suited for high-throughput operations, even during peak demand.”
