Stord, the Cloud Supply Chain leader, announced Stord One Warehouse, a modern, cloud-based Warehouse Management System (WMS) that’s as flexible as it is easy to use in helping operators achieve greater efficiency and productivity in their B2B and DTC fulfillment facilities.
Traditional WMSs are cumbersome, plaguing fulfillment centers with operational and labor inefficiencies, capacity constraints, billing leakage, and inaccuracies resulting in lost revenue, unnecessary operating costs, and unhappy customers. When software companies try to solve supply chain challenges without real-world operational experience, it results in a disconnect between operators’ needs and the WMS’s capabilities.
Stord has seen firsthand how insufficient and incumbent WMSs can hamper growth for brands and 3PLs. Since Stord’s inception, it has developed best-in-class technology and supply chain capabilities in tandem. Rather than rely on a clunky, inefficient solution, Stord built its own technology from the ground up—tasking its team of experts with building the best omnichannel WMS possible for Stord and the market.

“We battle tested our platform along with many other WMSs over several years within Stord’s fulfillment centers and its expansive partner network,” explained Jacob Boudreau, CTO and co-founder of Stord. “Knowing what we have is better than anything on the market, we decided to make it available for all 3PLs and brands who are looking to increase efficiency in their own warehouses.”
3PL providers, like GOSS Industries, and brands, like SnackPass, are already leveraging Stord One Warehouse to increase efficiency and output in their facilities.
“After outgrowing our prior tech stack, we needed a better solution to manage our inventory and supply chain as it scales,” said Jamie Marshall, COO and co-founder at Snackpass. “Stord One Warehouse has been a huge improvement for our supply chain team. Coupled with Stord One Commerce, our new tech stack has helped us get a real handle on inventory management across multiple facilities.”

Compared to benchmarks with other systems, early adopters saw up to a 75% reduction in packout process time and up to a 94% reduction in time in packing single line orders.
“We know how important a WMS is to the success of a warehouse operation,” said Sean Henry, CEO and co-founder of Stord. “We’re confident Stord One Warehouse will work for your business, because we rely on it for our own B2B and DTC customers each and every day in our own facilities.”
