Al Hassani selects WMS to run distribution centre

Al Hassani Group has selected Aware Warehouse Management Solutions (WMS) to run its new two million square feet state-of-the-art distribution centre in Dubai Investment Park.

WMS is part of Exactus, a leading software technology development company that provides the latest supply chain execution solutions and operates in the region under Business Systems Group (BSG).

After selecting Exactus' Aware WMS, Al Hassani Group expects to achieve significant logistics optimisation that is key to its continued growth, including labour savings, decreased throughput time, increased fill rate and improved inventory accuracy at the bin level. The company, which is engaged in import and wholesale of fast-moving consumer goods, including glassware, household goods and cosmetics, and manufacture and distribution of food stuff also expects the selection to increase visibility in the market and informed decision-making across the company.

"With the new system in place, we are looking to consolidate diverse supply chain systems into a unified process. Tight integration of Exactus' Aware Logistics Solutions can improve efficiency and visibility across the supply chain and increase productivity, helping Al Hassani generate value and achieve strategic advantage – both today and in the long term," said Abbas Hassani, Vice-President of Al Hassani Group.

"These solutions will help us establish efficient processes in our supply chain, effectively collaborate with our suppliers and stores and provide greater service to our customers."

BSG is the Competency Centre for Exactus in the region and its primary focus is the delivery of supply chain execution solutions and services to customers.

Mohideen Shaikh, Business Development Manager at BSG, said: "Exactus solutions help fast-growing companies to manage evolving business demands and requirements".
