Yusen Logistics Powers State-Of-The-Art UK Distribution Centre with Manhattan Active® Warehouse Management
Manhattan Associates Inc. (NASDAQ: MANH) today announced that Yusen Logistics Co. Ltd, one of the largest global supply chain logistics companies, has selected Manhattan Active® Warehouse Management to be implemented at its new, state-of-the-art distribution centre in the UK. The opening of the Northampton facility, expected to take place in January 2026, underlines Yusen Logistics commitment to improving performance and efficiency using cutting-edge distribution technology.
Established in 1955, Yusen Logistics is part of the Japan-based Nippon Yusen Kabushiki Kaisha group, also known as NYK. One of the oldest and largest shipping companies in the world, Yusen provides ocean and air freight forwarding, warehousing, distribution services, and supply chain management from more than 650 locations and nearly 3.4 million square meters of warehouse space across 46 countries.
“Our new 1,191,000 square foot site in the Midlands will be highly complex and employ the latest automation technology,” explained Ludovic Facompre, IT Director at Yusen Logistics. “After a successful partnership spanning two decades, it made sense for us to run this state-of-the-art facility on Manhattan Active Warehouse Management, the industry’s most advanced and robust warehouse management system.”
“Being a cloud-native solution built exclusively from API microservices, Manhattan Active Warehouse Management is unique in the WMS space. Its scalability, agility and continuous innovation cycles perfectly suit the dynamic and broad challenges presented by automation, fulfilment, labour management and yard operations in the new DC,” Facompre finished.
Manhattan Active Warehouse Management is born in the cloud and automatically scales to match any business need. Built entirely from microservices, it utilises applied intelligence that empowers real-time distribution planning for better, faster operational decisions.
“The implementation of Manhattan Active Warehouse Management is a significant first step on a longer journey towards a unified supply chain experience that will ultimately bring together warehouse, transportation, yard and labour management. Working closely with Yusen and its partners, our team will be involved in all aspects of the project, from design and go-live, right through to aftercare,” ended Craig Summers, vice president, Northern Europe at Manhattan Associates.
