Challenge: A multinational fast fashion retailer had separate warehouses for in-store and online fulfillment and was looking to implement an omnichannel model. The company needed to cater to inventory sub-classifications and associated business logic in picking; optimize its downstream operations; improve transportation efficiency; and reduce its dependency on a single warehouse management system (WMS).

The retailer relied solely on manual flow from inbound to outbound, and had no existing framework for opening new warehouses.

Solution: GreyOrange built a custom fulfillment solution that automated end-to-end flow — including inbound, putaway, picking and packing, sorting, and outbound operations — with a single view of inventory across channels. This would enable the retailer to build flexible, scalable warehouses that fulfill both in-store and online orders while quickly responding to changing consumer demand.

Results: With GreyOrange’s Fulfillment Operating System, the retailer pivoted to a true omnichannel fulfillment model. Time spent fulfilling orders dropped 50%, as well as labor costs (by 33%), pilferage and damages, and transportation costs (by maximizing tote utilization).

The retailer achieved a connected, customer-centric approach to fulfillment, and has been able to open new warehouses in a seamless and cost-effective manner.
