Savoye was selected as the automation and technology partner to fully
automate the e-commerce Global Distribution Center of iHerb in KSA, first of its

kind in the region.

Savoye, a leading global warehouse automation integrator and software publisher in
the Middle East, partnered with CJ Logistics, a 3PL services company operating for
iHerb, the leading global eCommerce retailer for health and wellness, in Riyadh,
Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA), to deliver world-class automation solutions for its e-
commerce Global Distribution Center (GDC). The strategic partnership is a significant
development for Savoye in KSA, following its recent expansion into the region.

Under the terms of the partnership, Savoye will implement a fully automated
fulfilment center, the first-of-its-kind in the region, which includes a X-PTS Goods-
To-Persons (GTP) shuttle system, Warehouse Execution Software (WES), Zone to
Zone fast picking system and automated orders packing to process 15K orders per
day. Savoye’s flagship X-PTS shuttle technology will be central to the project, serving
as the foundation for an effective and ergonomic Goods-To-Person solution.

Savoye’s high-end solution is seamlessly designed to reduce picking and packing
time by utilizing Savoye’s highly ergonomic GTP stations for prompt high-speed
picking operations. In addition, Savoye has designed fully automated packing lines
that are in charge of closing and labeling the prepared orders before automatically
sorting them into the various shipping lanes. The latest agreement marks a
significant milestone for all parties as they actively work towards transforming the
Middle Eastern supply chain industry by boosting productivity and encouraging
innovation.

Alain Kaddoum, Managing Director of Savoye Middle East, said: “We are proud to
embark on this journey with CJ Logistics and iHerb to further explore the Saudi
Arabian market with our tailored automated solutions. This partnership holds great
