Crocs Scales Distribution Network with Manhattan WMOS
Case study shows how Crocs used Manhattan WMOS to open new DCs in North America and Europe and handle tenfold growth in online orders.
Crocs implemented Manhattan Warehouse Management for Open Systems to support rapid global expansion. The system enabled fast deployment of new distribution centers, integration with automation equipment, and management of multiple order flows including ecommerce, retail, and wholesale. Labor Management and Supply Chain Intelligence modules provided real-time visibility and data-driven slotting decisions.
WMOS deployed in eight months for North American DC and three months for temporary ecommerce facility
European DC expanded from 130,000 to 377,000 square feet with WMOS configuration unchanged
Tenfold increase in online orders handled without added IT issues through standardized workflows
Integration with Dematic shuttles, 6 River robots, and Zebra handhelds created paperless operations
Quarterly strategy sessions with Manhattan enable roadmap input and sector-specific advice
