Case Study: Acumen Brands Uses Robots to 
Cut Warehouse Costs

RESULTS: Since going live with its new order fulfillment system in late May, Acumen Brands has seen its warehouse employees’ productivity more than triple and product return and order cancellation rates reduced by nearly 50 percent.

With a 60,000 square-foot facility in Fayetteville, Ark., Acumen Brands’ current warehouse and order fulfillment system is light-years from where it was just two short years ago when the company was founded. At that time the e-commerce retailer was attempting to fulfill orders out of a 3,500 square-foot doctor’s office (the company’s founder is an 
ex-physician).
