Briscoe Group completes supply chain overhaul for Rebel Sport using Manhattan Associates…
What happened
Briscoe Group completed a supply chain transformation for Rebel Sport, which involves managing the stores of Rebel Sport. The transformation included deploying a Manhattan Associates warehouse management system and establishing a new automated distribution center in South Auckland. This new facility increased pallet storage capacity from approximately 4,000 to 15,000 positions. The strategy shifts stock holding away from individual stores into this centralized distribution hub.

Why it matters
The project replaced largely paper-based warehouse processes with goods-to-person automation and a demand-driven replenishment model. This modernization aims to improve product availability across Briscoe Group's Homeware and Rebel Sport stores. The initiative is noted as one of the more significant warehouse modernization efforts undertaken by a New Zealand retailer recently.
