Partnership status change reflects
international expansion strategy for MetaPack
MetaPack, the global leader in eCommerce delivery technology,
has today announced that it has signed a new partnership agreement
with Manhattan Associates, a leader in supply chain and omnichannel
commerce technology. As a Global Gold Value Partner, MetaPack is
one of only a handful of international organisations working
hand-in-hand with Manhattan to identify and develop complementary
solutions and services to benefit retailers and brands.
The announcement coincides with the Momentum 2019 Conference,
hosted by Manhattan Associates in Phoenix, Arizona, this week (May
20-23), at which MetaPack will be exhibiting, hosting an exclusive
event and presenting as part of the popular seminar sessions.
The new partnership underlines the increasing affiliation
between the two companies, both of which are expanding their global
footprints with transformational commerce software. MetaPack will
benefit from Manhattan’s established tier-one enterprise software
provider status in the USA, giving it a bigger springboard in a
territory into which it has been expanding in recent years. There
is also a great opportunity for both organisations to align their
products in order to offer holistic solutions to customers.
Duncan Licence, VP for Global Products at MetaPack, said:
“Together we can deliver value for our shared customers, and open
up new relationships with retailers and brands who will benefit
from the power of both our platforms working in tandem. Manhattan
Associates is already building a standard adaptor from their
platform into ours, and this alone will significantly reduce
friction to ‘go-live’ for customers. It’s a great way to start our
Global Gold Partnership and demonstrates the potential for what we
can jointly offer.”
MetaPack, which was previously a European Regional Partner to
Manhattan Associates, will initially use its new Global Gold status
to focus on its two key markets, the U.S. and Europe. However, it
has invested in the relationship with a long-term strategy to fully
maximise Manhattan’s global reach and influence.
“Manhattan Associates has a significant presence all over the
world, and our partnership will enable us to gain a foothold in
territories that are new, but potentially very important to
MetaPack,” continued Duncan Licence.
“Manhattan’s solutions integrate with MetaPack’s products via
our robust External Parcel Integration (EPI) framework, which is
purpose-built, performance engineered and proven to reduce
integration time and costs,” said Eric Lamphier, senior director of
Alliances for Manhattan Associates. “Our joint customers can ship
confidently knowing that these integrated solutions are rating and
routing packages accurately while maintaining a high level of
compliance with ever-changing carrier requirements, like
dimensional considerations, labelling and electronic carrier
communications.”
