Carhartt in Dearborn, a leading workwear brand, has selected RELEX Solutions, a provider of unified supply chain and retail planning offerings, to centralize inventory and supply planning.
With the AI-driven RELEX platform, Carhartt will streamline global production planning, reduce excess inventory, and boost service levels to better meet customer expectations.
Founded in 1889, Carhartt is a family-owned and operated company that employs more than 3,000 associates worldwide. The company states it operates across multiple markets and channels, requiring sophisticated planning capabilities to manage complex global supply chains.
As a global workwear brand, Carhartt faces the challenge of accurately forecasting demand across diverse markets, while navigating seasonal fluctuations and a complex product mix.
With RELEX, which is based in Atlanta, Carhartt will benefit from automating and optimizing the product plans of production sites by calculating accurate production proposals to meet demand and target stocks.
The unified platform also will improve collaboration between demand planning, production, and supply chain teams, helping Carhartt respond faster to market shifts and better serve customer needs.
“The RELEX AI-driven platform will give us the visibility and agility we need to optimize our global production operations while maintaining the quality and reliability our customers expect,” says Fred Esseily, vice president of global production at Carhartt. “This unified approach will help us deliver the right products to our customers more efficiently than ever before.”
