Kiabi, a major European apparel retailer, outgrew its in-house warehouse management system due to capacity, flexibility, and visibility constraints. After selecting Manhattan Warehouse Management, the company deployed the solution across multiple sites using a replication model that reduced go-live times to 10 days. The system enabled real-time picking wave adjustments, improved order accuracy, and provided centralized control to support rapid store and volume growth.
