Sony of Canada Upgrades Warehouse Management System
Sony of Canada upgrades to a new version of RedPrairie Corporation's WMS (warehouse management system) in its Whitby, Ontario and Coquitlam, British Columbia distribution centers. Sony of Canada has been a RedPrairie customer for nine years and upgraded to a new version of the company's WMS to take advantage of new features and functionality including voice picking with Vocollect Voice from Vocollect Inc.
Both Sony of Canada distribution sites went live with the new version in April 2008. These warehouses service all wholesale and retail sales throughout Canada. The wholesale group is responsible for marketing and sales of Sony products to consumers through a dealer network and to professionals through multiple direct sales channels. The retail group operates approximately 80 Sony Style retail locations and is responsible for direct merchandising and sales of Sony and third-party products to consumers.
