## Company History 

During the mid-1980s, U.S. clothing manufacturers initiated studies to determine how to move goods through the supply chain more efficiently. As an active participant in these studies, Manhattan Associates’ founders observed that distribution was a key area in which technology could improve order accuracy and turnaround—ultimately resulting in huge cost savings and improved customer service. In 1990 Manhattan Associates, Inc., was founded in Manhattan Beach, California. The Company’s first software solution helped suppliers comply with the unique shipping-label specifications of major retailers. This was quickly followed by the development of a world-class warehouse management system, which forms the basis of one of our core solutions today.
