Descartes Says Retail Suite Improves Productivity of Retailers' Logistics

February 13, 2008
Descartes Systems Group

Descartes Systems Group says its Retail suite is being used by market leaders in that vertical around the world to improve productivity and performance of their logistics. The suite reportedly provides real-time visibility into deliveries to effectively manage and move goods, improve data integrity, reduce transportation costs, handle promotions, improve inventory management, provide supplier and carrier score carding and enhance customer service.
"We have been working with industry-leading retail customers...to support their logistics-intensive operations. Based on successful pilots in Australia, Europe, the United States and Canada, as well as our customers' continuous feedback and successful results, we've assembled a comprehensive suite of applications designed to meet
the requirements of global retail logistics operations," says Arthur Mesher, CEO at Descartes. "When combining these retail applications with our secure Global Logistics Network multimodal community, our customers can easily interact with their trading partners and suppliers to reduce transportation and inventory costs, have real-time visibility of goods and improve service across their supply chains."
