Savoye has successfully deployed its ODATiO Warehouse Management System (WMS) at CJ Logistics’ fulfilment centre 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 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 to bolster the Middle East’s rapidly growing logistics and e-commerce sectors.
“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,” stated Dr. Fadi Bin Saleh Al-Buhairan, Chief Executive Officer, SILZ Company.
Quality checks
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 — ensuring that 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.
“The project sets new benchmarks for eCommerce logistics and reflects our strong commitment to driving innovation and enhancing efficiency across Middle East, specifically in Saudi Arabia’s supply chain sector,” asserted Alain Kaddoum, Managing Director, Savoye Middle East.
e-commerce market size
With the Kingdom’s e-commerce market size estimated at US$ 27.96bn in 2025, and expected to reach US$ 49.49bn by 2030, it’s clear that scalable, intelligent, and integrated logistics infrastructure is critical, further noted.
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.
“Savoye’s 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,” observed JJ Woo, General Manager. CJ Logistics.
