PUMA Partners with AutoStore, Bastian Solutions

With this new facility, PUMA aims to increase daily order fulfilment from 100,000 to 200,000, enhancing speed, efficiency, and accuracy across the entire retail supply chain.

AutoStore and systems integrator Bastian Solutions have announced an expansion of their partnership with PUMA by implementing the former’s system at a new distribution centre in Phoenix, Arizona.

With this new facility, PUMA aims to increase daily order fulfilment from 100,000 to 200,000, enhancing speed, efficiency, and accuracy across the entire retail supply chain.

AutoStore’s cubic storage and retrieval system has been the default automated fulfilment solution integrated with PUMA’s warehouse operations since 2015, serving distribution facilities in Indiana and California.

“Speed is central to our value proposition. That’s why our system not only delivers high speed but also ensures accurate operations with minimal energy consumption. This new partnership exemplifies how our solution is perfectly suited for high throughput operations, even during peak demand,” said Mats Hovland Vikse, CEO at AutoStore.

“We are grateful to the team at PUMA for our ongoing collaboration and for trusting us to provide a fulfilment solution that meets the evolving demands of customer service.”

AutoStore’s automated storage and retrieval solution uses a cube-based modular storage system with robots and software to improve operational efficiency.

“Our mantra is forever faster, and that includes getting our products in the hands of our customers. AutoStore enables us to be the fastest we’ve ever been,” said Bob Philion, PUMA North America President.

“With the rise of e-commerce, we’re seeing a higher volume of orders moving through our facilities, in addition to more frequent surges in demand. Our continued partnership with AutoStore and Bastian Solutions allows us to maintain this rapid pace while ensuring every order is fulfilled accurately and efficiently.”

CEO and President at Bastian Solutions, Aaron Jones, commented, “We take pride in our long-standing partnership with AutoStore, having integrated over 100 of their systems across various industries. During our decade-long relationship, we’ve seen AutoStore become one of the most widely adopted automated fulfilment systems in the world, and we’re honoured to be a part of that journey.”

“PUMA is a prime example of how, together, we prioritise the needs of our customers, solving operational challenges while helping them meet and exceed their business objectives. Our collaboration showcases the power of innovation and customer centric solutions to drive performance and efficiency.”
