Dare Foods launches fourth DC using Automation
Associates' RF Pathways WMS
Calgary, ALBERTA - Dare Foods, a Canadian owned producer of
quality food products, announced the fourth successful DC
installation of RF Pathways WMS by Automation Associates.
The launch was made official today by Colleen Cox, Dare's
Distribution Manager, after the system has been operating
the facility for over the past month.
"With our past successes using RF Pathways, it was an
extremely easy decision for Dare of who our provider was going
to be. We have been running with this software at our DC's
in Kitchener, Montreal and Spartanburg, SC for over 4 years.
Our Calgary installation is the result of amalgamating multiple,
smaller regional facilities."
An added layer of complexity was introduced through the operations
of the DC being contracted to the world class logistics provider
Schenker Stinnes. Schenker is one of the leading international
providers of integrated logistics services, with a network
of 1,000 locations worldwide.
The Dare RF Pathways version includes the WMS foundation,
an integration layer to SAP v 4.7, the desktop GUI-based single
point access and control module and a reporting tool.
