About The Customer
Toyo Tires U.S.A. Corp. is a renowned tire manufacturer that has been delivering innovation, quality, performance, and excellent service for over 65 years. Established in 1966, the company offers a complete selection of premium replacement tires for nearly every make and model, including high-performance cars, luxury vehicles, light trucks, and SUVs, as well as commercial trucks. Many of their tires are built in the United States at their state-of-the-art factory in Bartow County, Georgia. The company is known for its commitment to quality and performance, and it continually strives to improve its operations and services to meet the high demand for tires around the world.
The Challenge
Toyo Tires, a leading tire manufacturer established in 1966, faced a significant challenge in managing their warehouse operations. The global demand for tires was high, and the company needed to upgrade its warehouse management system to keep up with this demand. The current economic climate further pushed Toyo Tires to make a decision that would minimize waste and provide better control over their product distribution. The company was seeking a solution that would offer tighter inventory control, agile inventory management, and increased productivity. The challenge was to find a system that could efficiently manage the inventory of a wide range of tires for various vehicles, including high-performance cars, luxury vehicles, light trucks, SUVs, and commercial trucks.
The Solution
Toyo Tires chose Royal 4’s Tire Warehouse Management System (WISE) to address their warehouse management challenges. WISE provides an RF solution for inventory receiving, put-away, cross-docking, product location, picking, shipping, tire aging alerts, NAFTA compliance, outbound documentation, and more. The system tracks tires from the moment they are received, directing the put-away process to best utilize available space. It also eliminates guesswork when picking orders by directing pickers to strategic retrieval locations, making staging and loading tires more efficient and accurate. WISE seamlessly integrates with Toyo’s SAP system in real time, which increases efficiencies and reduces costly data entry errors.
