St. Jacobs, ON- These new systems will facilitate efficient operations and maximize resources to ensure the supply chain continues to be the best in the industry.

Coast to coast to coast, Home Hardware Dealer-Owners benefit from access to the best warehouse and distribution system in the industry.  WMS moves products smoothly through the entire supply chain and  decreases operating costs, which allows Dealer-Owners to concentrate on helping their customers instead of worrying about ordering products and tracking shipments. The combined result focuses on more orders shipped accurately, faster, and at a reduced cost.

"The supply chain is evolving at a record pace as customers demand more services and value in shorter delivery times at a lesser cost - WMS has the power to meet these demands. This comprehensive level of logistics management, from product orders to quick and reliable delivery, can’t be found anywhere else."
