TEANECK, NJ — June 18, 2024 — Made4net, a global provider of cloud-based Warehouse Management Systems (WMS) & end-to-end supply chain execution software, proudly announces they have been named a winner of this year’s Top Supply Chain Projects award. The award, presented by Supply & Demand Chain Executive and Food Logistics, recognizes innovative projects designed to automate, optimize, streamline, and improve the supply chain.
Made4net earned its spot in the Top Supply Chain Projects for their work with Sprouts Farmers Markets who partnered with the company when the use of paper-based processes proved too cumbersome to manage the demands of expansion.

With Made4net’s WMS technology and the addition of mobile RF scanners, Sprouts has streamlined and standardized processes within its distribution centers. The efficiency improvements achieved have translated to significant gains, including:
- Improved inventory accuracy by 32%
- Increased picking efficiency by 25%
- Shortened order fulfillment cycles
- Automated quality control procedures
- Increased labor efficiency and productivity
- Improved control and traceability of perishable inventory
- Supported higher fulfillment volumes using its existing labor force
“Helping our customers achieve their goals is rewarding in itself, but getting this recognition is an excellent cherry on top, celebrating our commitment to technology, innovation, and collaboration,” said Duff Davidson, CEO at Made4net.
“The past 12 months has seen companies within the supply chain and logistics space upgrade, enhance, adopt and adapt in order to achieve greater efficiency along the chain. Companies implemented others’ software and technology to work smarter, together. Their partnerships cultivated resilience and placed a spotlight on projects designed to make the supply chain space safer and more efficient,” says Marina Mayer, Editor-in-Chief of Supply & Demand Chain Executive and Food Logistics. “And, now it’s time to celebrate those projects!”
