'We were growing fast, and we needed help,' says Mugsy Director of Operations and Stores Mike McGee. 'Based on recommendations from other brands, we chose Ryder – first for e-commerce fulfillment and then, once we saw what they could do, omnichannel fulfillment for our store replenishment – and it's been a perfect fit. Between Ryder's people and their advanced technology and warehouse automation solutions, we now have the most control over our operations that we've ever had.'

With Ryder and RyderShip™, a purpose-built e-commerce technology platform, Mugsy has tripled its order fulfillment capabilities and is delivering an average of one to two days faster than previous solutions, while still balancing costs.

'And, we're able to make dynamic business decisions on a day-to-day basis and quickly launch customer experience initiatives, such as sales and promotional packaging, based on trends we're seeing in the marketplace,' adds McGee.
