Arbonne International is a leading direct selling distributor of health and beauty products. The company installed a Pick to Light system from Lightning Pick Technologies in their Irvine, CA distribution center to increase the speed and accuracy of their order picking process.
As the company's rapid business growth continued, a new DC in Greenwood, IN was built to take the pressure off Irvine. Arbonne again installed Lightning Pick's light-directed system, enabling them to ship orders to their consultants faster, in turn supporting a better level of customer service that creates more sales orders.
Peggy Smedley reports direct from new DC at go-live, providing a rare and exciting glimpse into the early implementation of several new integrated systems at this highly automated distribution operation.
