Manhattan Associates to promote new supply chain solutions footprint at Retail Solutions

Manhattan Associates, will be exhibiting on stand C9 at Retail Solutions 2008, taking place at Excel, London on the 24th-26th June.

The leading supply chain optimisation provider will be promoting and demonstrating Manhattan SCOPE, its recently launched portfolio of solutions and technology that leverages a common Supply Chain Process Platform to optimise supply chains holistically.

Trevor Ashworth, director of food retail logistics for The Co-op - a Manhattan client - will kick off proceedings at the event's inaugural Supply Chain track (commencing at 9.30am on Tuesday 24th June) with a presentation entitled 'Harnessing Technology to Drive Efficiency'. Trevor will provide end user testimony about the strengths of Manhattan's unique solutions portfolio. He will also offer guidance on getting more from both new and existing supply chain infrastructure investments, the importance of anticipating market trends and the likely impact the consumer will have on supply chains over the next five to ten years.

"Retail Solutions has really stepped up its game this year and we're delighted to see the supply chain sector becoming such a core focus at the event for the first time. We're particularly pleased to see an entire track being devoted to this critical business discipline. To demonstrate our confidence in the success we believe the track will enjoy, we decided to become one of its key sponsors," commented John Bird, director of international communications strategy at Manhattan Associates.

Visitors to Manhattan Associates' stand (C9) will be able to talk to a number people from the Manhattan team including Allen Scott, the company's UK managing director, who will be available to discuss the company's latest results as well as its product portfolio and recent customer successes.
