Case Study: VF Corporation achieves nearly 100% inventory accuracy and faster fulfillment with Manhattan Associates' Warehouse & Labor Management

VF Corporation gains nearly 100% inventory accuracy outfitted with Manhattan solutions

VF Corporation, a Greensboro-based global apparel and footwear leader with 30 distribution centers and dozens of acquired brands (Vans, The North Face, Wrangler, etc.), needed a unified warehouse solution to manage complex DC operations, improve visibility and speed to market, and support rapid growth from acquisitions—particularly to scale Vans’ distribution and reduce order cycle time.

VF implemented Manhattan Associates’ Warehouse Management for IBM i and Labor Management, standardizing a common fulfillment strategy across its DCs with Manhattan Professional Services. Results included nearly 100% inventory accuracy, retail service levels for Vans improving more than 90% (with 24-hour replenishment for key SKUs), wholesale performance up ~32%, and lower labor costs through improved accountability and process optimization.
