Having the right technology helps ensure the agility we need to successfully scale to meet customer demand,” said Saman Yazdanfar, Shipping Operations Manager at Voluspa. “While our order mix and complexity vary greatly, Descartes’ solution has helped us achieve almost 100% order accuracy and significantly shorten our distribution cycles through highly automated workflows and much greater visibility into warehouse and shipping performance.”
