Pep Boys Launches Companywide TMS
By Bob Johns, Integrated Solutions For Retailers
Pep Boys, with roughly 750 stores and 7,000 service bays, is one of the largest auto parts and service providers in the U.S. Started in 1921 by four Navy buddies in Philadelphia, Pep Boys has grown to over $2 billion in revenue and employs more than 16,000 people. With a company this size, transportation management can be a nightmare. That is why Pep Boys began an integral relationship with Transplace to implement a transportation management system (TMS) as early as 2006.

It's "rush hour" at Memphis International Airport (MEM). Soon after a plane touches down, passengers are jostling through the gates, carry on luggage in tow and cell phones pressed to ears, rushing off to their connecting flights. As travelers brush past, airport personnel strive to help passengers who need information or have special needs. The scene is being repeated throughout Memphis International Airport, which is unusual in that approximately one third of all daily flights take off or land within a 70- to 90-minute period. |
