Member News 1 min read

Congratulations are in order for AAPN member NGC.

For 70 years, California Manufacturing has been producing men's and women’s outerwear, sportswear and uniforms under the Canyon Guide Outfitters and Dakota Grizzly labels, as well as many private brands.

The company is headquartered in St. Louis MO, operates a distribution and embroidery center in California, and has offices and partner factories around the world. And they recently announced that they will be implementing the NGC Andromeda PLM® and Andromeda SCM® solutions for both the Canyon Guide Outfitters and Dakota Grizzly brands, providing the company with an integrated, seamless solution for all its lines of business.

“Andromeda gives us all the features we need — product development, P.O. management, production tracking, logistics, vendor collaboration and workflow management,” said Greg Bailey, CIO, California Manufacturing Company. “With Andromeda, it’s one-stop shopping that takes product development all the way from inspiration of the product, to fit and distribution.”

The NGC team’s expertise was also an important factor in the selection. “NGC knew exactly what we were looking for and understood our business from our first contact,” Bailey said. “We didn’t get that from the other solution providers, and it was definitely a plus for NGC. They’re a strong fit with our culture and the way that California Manufacturing Company does business."

Again, congratulations to NGC on another big deal!
