Winter, Spring, Summer, Fall - WinterSilks & Venus Swimwear
WinterSilks and Venus Swimwear have created a working solution to the challenge of running a seasonal business.
Other than needing more space and learning to accommodate large shipments arriving at one time from suppliers, he says it was a pretty seamless transition. Scott suggests, “Anyone merging operations has a distinct advantage if the product categories from the two companies are similar.”
What did change with the addition of another catalog to fulfill was the level of detail the software system that runs the warehouse operation had to manage. “A very sophisticated warehouse management system (WMS) now handles the movement of product around the warehouse,” says Scott. The WMS Venus/WinterSilks uses is a custom package written by The Phoenix Systems Group. (Phoenix is a company comprised of the head programmers from the former Nashbar.)
