HAMBURG, Germany<\/span>, Jan. 14, 2022<\/span> \/PRNewswire\/ — Ariat International<\/a>, a leading footwear and apparel brand for equestrian sports, outdoor activities and work industries, has chosen K\u00f6rber<\/a> to increase throughput and maximize capacity in their central warehouse.

Ariat is already capitalizing on K\u00f6rber’s K.Motion Warehouse Management System (WMS)<\/a>, which has just gone live at the facility in Texas<\/span>. As a trusted partner delivering an end-to-end offering for supply chain execution, K\u00f6rber is further driving Ariat’s supply chain vision with autonomous mobile robots (AMRs)<\/a> in collaboration with the global AMR leader Geek+<\/a>. The retailer has now rolled out 88 robots for the fulfillment of their entire portfolio of products at this Texas DC.<\/p>\n

“K\u04e7rber’s partnership and experience in deploying their comprehensive technology solutions has allowed us to further improve our customer and employee experience”, says Matt Hardenberg<\/span>, Vice President of Distribution, Ariat International. “Automating picking with the AMRs and the WMS allows us to reinvest our team’s time in customer-facing activities.”<\/p>\n

Our end-to-end supply chain solutions allow us to deliver a unique mix for each individual customer to conquer their supply chain complexities.”<\/p>\n
