SNOCKS Doubles Fulfillment Productivity with Descartes Ecommerce Warehouse Management Solution
September 14 2020 - 6:45AM
Descartes Systems Group (Nasdaq: DSGX) (TSX: DSG), the global
leader in uniting logistics-intensive businesses in commerce,
announced that Germany’s SNOCKS, a lifestyle brand offering premium
sneaker socks, clothes and accessories, has doubled its ecommerce
fulfillment productivity and scaled for peak promotions using the
Descartes Ecommerce Warehouse Management Solution (WMS).
“The decision to augment our Amazon channel by launching SNOCKS,
based on Shopify Plus, and take fulfillment into our own hands
provides us with more control over the customer experience and
shipping performance,” said Felix Bauer, founder of SNOCKS. “We
worked closely with Descartes to build an efficient,
technology-driven ecommerce warehouse and, in just two months, the
solution was live. Since then, fulfillment productivity has
doubled, over 90% of all incoming orders are shipped on the same
day, and the picking error rate at peak times has dropped to
0.4%—even during a record month of 39,000 shipments!”
The Descartes Ecommerce WMS solution automates ecommerce
processes from initial goods receipt through put-away in the
warehouse, order processing, outbound shipment execution and
returns management. Integrated with hundreds of ecommerce sites and
ecommerce fulfilment providers in both Europe and North America,
the solution enables small-to-medium-sized businesses and large
retailers to enhance their online presence to support growing
ecommerce demand. The solution collects order information from
ecommerce websites, translates it into mobile scanning-driven
pick-and-pack process within the warehouse, initiates the shipment
to the customer, and synchronizes receiving and fulfillment
information with the customer’s financial and shipment tracking
systems.
“We’re pleased that the Descartes solution is helping SNOCKS to
drive new online sales and elevate the customer experience through
highly efficient ecommerce fulfillment,” said Dirk Haschke, VP
& General Manager, eCommerce at Descartes. “As online retailers
face pressure to overcome logistical challenges to keep up with
shifting consumer demands, excellence in fulfillment is
instrumental to supporting dramatic business growth while fueling
customer loyalty.”
