Empik relies on Warehouse Management System PSIwms

Poland's leading distributor optimizes logistics processes

Berlin, 19 December 2017 – PSI subsidiary PSI Polska Sp. z o.o. was awarded by Empik with the implementation of the Warehouse Management System PSIwms for the entire Empik Group. Empik is Poland's leading distributor of cultural and entertainment products.

Empik is steadily implementing its growth strategy by using innovative offline, online and mobile technologies. "The dynamic growth in sales and the implementation of omni-channel solutions have led us to look for a high-performance logistics solution," said Wiesław Majewski, Logistics Director at Empik. After extensive evaluation, Empik decided in favour of the warehouse management software PSIwms.

"It fits perfectly within a large company with good growth prospects like ours," said Wiesław Majewski.

With integrated Smart-Move technology, PSIwms enables users to clearly define and automate warehouse processes. The system is highly configurable and supports the processes in the three main sales channels E-Commerce, Retail and B2B. The use of the system will streamline logistics processes, improve performance, shorten order lead times and improve resource planning and supply chain efficiency at Empik. The contract was signed in December 2017 and the project is to be progressively implemented in two years.

Empik today operates Poland's largest distribution network for cultural, scientific and entertainment goods. In over 200 shops Empik offers e.g. books, music CDs, movies, (multimedia) games, arts & crafts and stationery, as well as event tickets. With about 1.6 million products, Empik is one of the largest online shops in Poland.
