The Vitamin Shoppe, Inc. - Customer Case Study

The Vitamin Shoppe, a specialty retailer of nutritional products, faced distribution challenges due to its significant growth, including a need for faster order processing, accurate tracking, and more efficient operations. To address these issues, the company partnered with vendor Dematic to develop a new 218,000 square foot distribution facility.

Dematic designed and installed a comprehensive distribution system featuring automated conveyor and sortation equipment managed by its Equipment Management System (EMS) software. The solution improved routing and tracking capabilities, increased throughput to 57 cases per minute, and reduced maintenance costs. This allowed The Vitamin Shoppe to efficiently service all 340 of its store locations and handle its mail order and online fulfillment.
