About The Customer
AMMEX is a global importer of disposable gloves providing retailers and distributors with high-performance, high-margin products. The company sources disposable rubber, latex, and nitrile gloves from vendors across Asia before transporting their goods via direct shipping containers to North America. AMMEX uses third-party warehouses located in Washington, Pennsylvania, Georgia, Nevada, and Canada to fulfill orders across North America with LTL shipments. As a massive enterprise organization, AMMEX decided to turn to technology to streamline their logistics operations and make shipping processes more transparent.
The Challenge
AMMEX, a global importer of disposable gloves, was facing challenges in consolidating processes into a single transportation management system. The company needed a TMS that could integrate with Microsoft Dynamics and connect to a variety of LTL carriers. The system also needed to scale to incorporate container tracking and be usable by multiple departments within the organization. The company was shipping between 80 – 100+ LTL shipments every day from their domestic warehouse locations and needed a system to streamline their logistics operations and make shipping processes more transparent.
The Solution
AMMEX implemented Kuebix TMS in late 2018 and has continued to add functionality and features to expand its usage across their offices in the USA and the Philippines. Currently, 15 logistics and supply chain professionals within the company are registered users of the TMS. AMMEX’s logistics team uses the TMS on a daily basis to rate, book, and track their LTL shipments to retailers and distributors nation-wide. The company is leveraging an ERP integration between Microsoft Dynamics and Kuebix to automatically populate order information between systems. This greatly speeds up the order creation process and ensures that issues don’t arise because of human error. AMMEX has decided to continue to scale with Kuebix by adding container tracking for inbound visibility.

Intelligent vending machines can be found in many public locations as well as company facilities, selling different types of goods and services, including even computer accessories, gold bars, tickets, and office supplies. With increasing sophistication, they may also provide time- and location-based data pertaining to sales, inventory, and customer preferences.
