Dematic Enhances Scentsy Fulfillment Center With AutoStore(TM) and Warehouse Execution Software
ATLANTA, GEORGIA / ACCESS Newswire / June 3, 2025 / Dematic, a global leader in supply chain automation, recently partnered with Scentsy, an international fragrance company, to transform its facility in Meridian, Idaho. The newly implemented advanced automation system provides improved efficiency, increased picking capacity, and faster order fulfillment.
Scentsy's 160,000-square-foot facility features Dematic Warehouse Execution System (WES) software with an AutoStore system (with 20,800 product bins, 100 R5 robots, 16 carousel picking ports, and two conveyor ports) and a pick-to-cart system. The operation performs automated piece picking for e-commerce order fulfillment and allows Scentsy to increase picking capacity to 450 units per hour, nearly a 50% improvement from the 300 units per hour from its previous manual pick line.
'Like our customers, we continuously evolve and adapt. To remain at the forefront and exceed expectations, we transformed our approach so we could ship products faster, more accurately, and with better inventory visibility,' says Paul Klassen, Scentsy chief operating officer. 'Dematic has been a trusted partner throughout this journey, working with us to provide a solution, not just another system. Their expertise helped us embrace automation, enhance efficiency, and better prepare for the future.'
Scentsy's inventory continues to grow from frequent new product launches and stocking of discontinued scents. The Dematic solution maximizes storage space, maintains consistent processing speeds, and adapts quickly to fluctuations in demand. Customers receive accurate on-time orders, even during peak periods or new product launches. The solution helps conserve natural resources by reducing paper waste as employees access order information digitally instead of using printed tickets. Additionally, the efficient storage and retrieval process of the AutoStore system minimizes energy use, supporting broader eco-friendly best practices..
'The trust Scentsy has in Dematic underscores our dedication to providing innovative, scalable solutions that drive business growth,' says Mike Oren, Dematic senior vice president of sales for the Americas region. 'This partnership is a powerful example of how technology can transform operations and create exceptional customer experiences.'

Roof Maxx and Mike Rowe Team Up to Spotlight the Changing Landscape of Roofing
DELAND, FL / ACCESS Newswire / June 4, 2025 / In March, Roof Maxx welcomed TV personality, narrator, and trades advocate Mike Rowe to DeLand, Florida for a special day of filming centered on the rapidly growing roof rejuvenation industry. The shoot spotlighted Roof Maxx - the company that pioneered roof rejuvenation - and its innovative, sustainable approach to extending the life of aging asphalt roofs with a USDA-certified, soybean-based Rowe, Dealer and Roof Maxx CEO Mike Rowe preparing to apply Roof Maxx to a customer's home with the help of James Canata, DeLand Florida Dealer and Roof Maxx CEO, Mike Feazel. Throughout the day, Rowe explored Roof Maxx's signature product alongside Roof Maxx CEO and co-founder Mike Feazel, taking a close look at how asphalt shingles have changed over time-specifically how today's shingles often lack the durability of those made even a decade ago. Rowe also spoke directly with Roof Maxx dealers and customers, capturing real-world stories that demonstrate how roof rejuvenation is changing the way homeowners and roofing professionals think about maintenance, sustainability, and value. 'It's a great American story-opportunity meets ambition with a little frustration, and suddenly, here you are.' said Mike Rowe after hearing Mike Feazel tell the story about how he co-founded Roof Maxx with his brother after seeing the quality of asphalt shingles rapidly decline after spending decades in the roofing industry. Mike Rowe is best known as the host of Dirty Jobs and the voice behind Deadliest Catch, but his passion for the skilled trades extends far beyond television. Through his foundation, mikeroweWORKS, Rowe has helped provide millions of dollars in work ethic scholarships to individuals pursuing careers in the trades-encouraging a return to practical, hands-on education and opportunity. The content captured during this filming day is currently being released in a series of short videos, available at and across Roof Maxx's social media platforms. These videos offer a behind-the-scenes look at how roof rejuvenation is reshaping the roofing industry - and why more and more contractors, homeowners, and communities are getting on board.

Alpha Alternative Assets Fund Update
LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM / ACCESS Newswire / June 4, 2025 / Alpha Growth Plc, a leading financial services company in the life insurance-linked asset/wealth management business, is pleased to provide the following update for its group company, Alpha Growth Management LLC. Alpha Growth Management LLC, a specialist in esoteric and longevity-based investments, announces a performance and strategy update for the Alpha Alternative Assets Fund (Nasdaq: I Shares - AAACX and A Shares - AACAX) since the firm assumed management in September 2022. Strategic Transition and Investment FocusIn September 2022, Alpha Growth Management LLC took over as investment adviser for AAAF, implementing a new strategy centered on longevity and esoteric assets. The fund now targets structured settlement receivables, legal finance, life settlements, royalties, and other unconventional assets designed to deliver low correlation to traditional markets and offer unique risk premiums. This approach leverages Alpha Growth's extensive expertise in sourcing and managing assets that are typically inaccessible to most investors with limited quarterly liquidity through the interval fund structure. Performance Overview: September 2022 - May 2025 Trailing twelve months (1 year) as of 5/31/2025: AAAF continued its positive momentum, posting a 7.44% net return.2024: AAAF continued its positive momentum, posting a 5.85% return year-to-date as of December 31, 2024. This performance outpaced its benchmark, which returned 3.60% during the same period.2023: The fund achieved a positive annual return of 1.99% for the full year 2023, marking a turnaround from prior declines and reflecting early benefits of the revised investment approach.2022 (Post-Transition Partial Year): Following the management change, AAAF returned -1.24% for the period ending September 30, 2022, outperforming the Bloomberg Barclays Global Aggregate Index, which returned -5.14% in the same period. Key Differentiators and Portfolio Construction Dual-Strategy Approach: AAAF employs a dual-sleeve structure, balancing illiquid longevity assets with a liquid sleeve to manage cash flow and provide quarterly repurchase and Risk Management: The fund's portfolio is constructed to minimize correlation with traditional equity and bond markets, offering investors potential refuge from broader market Liquidity: As an interval fund, AAAF provides quarterly repurchase offers, allowing investors periodic access to liquidity while maintaining exposure to less liquid, potential higher-yielding assets. Industry Context AAAF's recent performance demonstrates the potential of alternative strategies to deliver value in a challenging and evolving investment environment. The fund's focus on longevity and esoteric assets positions it within the interval fund landscape, providing access to asset classes traditionally reserved for institutional investors. About Alpha Growth Management LLCAlpha Growth Management LLC is a US-registered investment adviser specializing in alternative investment strategies, with a focus on esoteric and longevity assets. The firm is committed to delivering innovative portfolio solutions that provide diversification and enhanced return opportunities for investors. For more information on Alpha Alternative Assets Fund, please visit About Alpha Growth plc Specialist in Longevity Assets Alpha Growth plc is a financial advisory business providing specialist consultancy, advisory, and supplementary services to institutional and qualified investors globally in the multi-billion dollar market of longevity assets and insurance linked asset and wealth management. Building on its well-established network, the Alpha Growth group has a unique position in the insurance and asset services and investment business, as a listed entity with global reach. The group's strategy is to expand its advisory and business services via acquisitions and joint ventures in the UK and the US to attain commercial scale and provide holistic solutions to alternative institutional investors who are in need of specialized skills and unique access to deploy their financial resource in longevity assets. Longevity Assets and Non-correlation As a longevity asset, it is non-correlated to the real estate, equity capital and commodity markets. Its value is a function of time because as time passes the value gets closer to the face value of the policy. Hence creating a steady increase in the net asset value of the investment. This makes it highly attractive to investors wishing to counteract volatility within an investment portfolio and add yield. Note: The Company only advises on and manages Longevity Assets that originate in the USA where the structured and life settlement market is highly regulated. Important Disclosures THIS IS NEITHER AN OFFER TO SELL NOR A SOLICITATION TO PURCHASE ANY SECURITY. INVESTORS SHOULD CAREFULLY CONSIDER THE INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES, RISKS, CHARGES AND EXPENSES OF THE ALPHA ALTERNATIVE ASSETS FUND. IMPORTANT RISK INFORMATION: Investing in esoteric assets involves unique risks, distinct from those associated with traditional asset classes. These risks may include, but are not limited to, liquidity risk, market risk, regulatory risk, and valuation risk. Investors should be aware that the value of esoteric assets may fluctuate, and there is a possibility of partial or total loss of investment. Investors should be aware that these assets may not align with traditional risk models, leading to increased volatility and heightened sensitivity to external factors. Before engaging in esoteric asset investments, it is advisable for investors to thoroughly understand the associated risks, seek professional guidance, and stay informed about market developments. Due diligence is crucial, as thorough research and expert advice are essential to navigating the complexities associated with esoteric assets. Past performance is not indicative of future results, and the unique characteristics of esoteric assets require careful consideration and a well-informed investment strategy. Investing in the Fund's shares involves risks, including the following: The Fund's shares have limited pricing or performance history. Shares of the Fund will not be listed on any securities exchange, which makes them inherently illiquid. There is no secondary market for the Fund's shares, and it is not anticipated that a secondary market will develop. The shares of the Fund are not redeemable. Although the Fund will offer to repurchase at least 5% of outstanding shares on a quarterly basis in accordance with the Fund's repurchase policy, the Fund will not be required to repurchase shares at a shareholder's option nor will shares be exchangeable for units, interests or shares of any security. The Fund is not required to extend, and shareholders should not expect the Fund's Board of Trustees to authorize, repurchase offers in excess of 5% of outstanding shares. Regardless of how the Fund performs, an investor may not be able to sell or otherwise liquidate his or her shares whenever such investor would prefer and, except to the extent permitted under the quarterly repurchase offer, will be unable to reduce his or her exposure on any market downturn. If and to the extent that a public trading market ever develops, shares of closed-end investment companies, such as the Fund, may have a tendency to trade frequently at a discount from their NAV per share and initial offering prices. An investment in the Fund's shares is not suitable for investors who cannot tolerate risk of loss or who require liquidity, other than liquidity provided through the Fund's repurchase policy. Alternative investments are highly speculative and involve a great degree of risk and are not suitable for all investors. Full loss of principal is possible. The fund may engage in the use of leverage and other speculative investment practices, such as short sales, options, derivatives, futures and illiquid investments that may increase the risk of investment loss. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that an investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than original cost. IMPORTANT DEFINITIONS: Esoteric Assets: Esoteric Assets refer to debts or other financial instruments with a complex structure that is properly understood by only a few people with specialized knowledge. Litigation Finance, also known as third-party litigation funding, is a financial arrangement where a third party provides capital to a plaintiff or defendant in a lawsuit, in exchange for a share of any resulting settlement or judgment. Correlation refers to the degree to which the price of a particular asset or investment moves to the overall stock market. A Life Settlement is the sale of an existing life insurance policy to a third party for a lump-sum payment, typically more than the policy's cash surrender value but less than the death benefit. The buyer becomes the new policy owner and beneficiary. Structured Settlements are legal settlements paid out as an annuity rather than in a lump sum, usually with certain tax advantages for the recipient and savings for the payer. A Royalty Deal is an agreement where someone receives a payment, typically a percentage of revenue or a fixed amount per unit, for the use of their property, intellectual property, or assets. SPE or Special Purpose Entity, is a legal entity (often a limited company) created to fulfill specific or temporary objectives, often used to isolate financial risks or manage specific asset. Non-Bid: A contract awarded or executed without seeking bids or proposals from any other potential bidder or offerer. Non Flow: Unlike equities that may pay out no cash flows to investors, or variable-income securities, where payments can change based on some underlying measure, such as short-term interest rates, the payments of a fixed-income security are known in advance and remain fixed throughout. Non-Market:: Not relating to or influenced by the demand of people to buy certain things or the supply of things to be purchased. Non-Auctioned: Do not participate in a formal auction for the securities but instead accept the market price set by other participants. Non-Brokered:: A company sells the security directly to investors. By doing this, the company can forgo the fees and hassle of hiring a broker (often an investment bank) and maintains more control over the selling process. Alpha: Alpha is used in finance as a measure of performance, indicating when a strategy, trader, or portfolio manager has managed to beat the market return or other benchmark over some period. DIVERSIFICATION DOES NOT GUARANTEE AGAINST A LOSS. BEFORE INVESTING YOU SHOULD CAREFULLY CONSIDER THE FUND'S INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES, RISKS, CHARGES AND EXPENSES.
