Gap Inc. & TGW Logistics
Gap Inc. Hits New Performance Levels with TGW Logistics
Automated Material Handling
Gap Inc. has grown from a single retail store in 1969 to one of the largest fashion retailers in the world and includes the brands Gap, Banana Republic, Old Navy, and Athleta. When Gap wanted to reduce the number of manual touches across their distribution centers for more efficient operations, they partnered with TGW Logistics. Over the past eight years, Gap has invested in automated material handling in their U.S. fulfillment centers in Fishkill, Fresno, Gallatin, and Groveport, as well as their Canadian fulfillment center in Brampton.
A Milestone in Material Handling
Gap’s retail and ecommerce orders in North America are handled through decentralized distribution centers. They decided to automate when they noticed their manual processes leading to slowdowns and inefficiencies.
To optimize inbound logistics and storage processes, Gap invested in automated solutions that reduced the number of touches by seven compared to manual systems. With automated goods receiving, operators only need to unload trailers before products are ready to be picked for customer orders.
Gap set a milestone for operational performance, leading them to upgrade seven North American distribution centers.
