Savoye’s solution ‘ODATiO WMS’ goes live at CJ Logistics fulfilment center – Phase 1 in SILZ
 

(RIYADH) - Savoye, a one-stop-shop integrator of automated warehouse solutions and software publisher in the Middle East, has successfully deployed its ODATiO Warehouse Management System (WMS) at CJ Logistics’ fulfilment center for iHerb, located in the Riyadh Integrated zone that is developed and operated by Special Integrated Logistics Zone (SILZ) Company in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

This successful completion marks a significant achievement, as it is the first WMS implementation within a SILZ facility — a critical initiative under Saudi Vision 2030, designed to position the Kingdom as a leading global integrated logistics hub and bolster the Middle East’s rapidly growing logistics and e-commerce sectors.

Dr. Fadi Bin Saleh Al-Buhairan, Chief Executive Officer of SILZ Company, stated: “The region’s first advanced WMS going live within SILZ marks more than just a technological achievement. It is a powerful embodiment of our vision for the Zone, where we are not merely building infrastructure but shaping a fully integrated ecosystem where innovation meets ambition. This milestone, achieved in collaboration with Savoye and CJ Logistics, is a testament to our commitment to creating the engine that will empower our partners to raise the bar on logistics efficiency and extend their reach from the heart of the Kingdom to serve global markets.”

ODATiO now drives the facility’s main operational processes, including receiving incoming goods, conducting quality checks, tracking items at the SKU level, managing stock replenishment, order picking, and outbound shipping — all tailored to meet the specific requirements of iHerb, a health and wellness e-commerce brand. A key feature of Phase 1 is the ODATiO Business Rule Engine, which allows CJ Logistics to set and modify operational rules as needed. This includes setting custom restocking levels, automatically triggering value-added services, and fine-tuning picking methods to ensure the operation remains scalable, responsive, and under maximum control as requirements evolve.

This phase has enabled CJ Logistics to establish a robust digital foundation for managing iHerb’s diverse product portfolio, which demands high standards for compliance, quality, and traceability.

Alain Kaddoum, Managing Director at Savoye Middle East, said: “The project sets new benchmarks for eCommerce logistics and reflects our strong commitment to driving innovation and enhancing efficiency across the Middle East, specifically in Saudi Arabia’s supply chain sector. With the Kingdom’s e-commerce market size estimated at USD 27.96 billion in 2025 and expected to reach USD 49.49 billion by 2030, it’s clear that a scalable, intelligent, and integrated logistics infrastructure is critical. By structuring this deployment into two clear phases, we were able to support CJ Logistics’ progressive launch strategy. This flexible approach allowed us to deliver value quickly while setting the foundation for a seamless transition to automation. At Savoye, we believe that innovation must be purposeful, empowering businesses, enhancing scalability, and supporting national ambitions like Saudi Vision 2030”.

Phase 2 is scheduled for later this year and will see ODATiO integrated with the facility’s automation infrastructure, including X-PTS shuttle systems and zone-to-zone picking. Once fully operational, the site will handle up to 15,000 orders daily with high-speed precision.

JJ Woo, General Manager at CJ Logistics, said: "Savoye has been an exceptionally responsive and collaborative partner throughout this journey. Their ability to adapt to our evolving business needs and timelines has been instrumental in successfully launching this complex project, especially within the high-performance, fast-paced environment of Riyadh Integrated, SILZ’s first airport logistics zone”.

This implementation reflects the strong alliance between Savoye, CJ Logistics, and SILZ Company—each playing a strategic role in delivering a smart, scalable, and high-throughput logistics operation in the heart of Saudi Arabia.
