around the world.

Santa’s workshops are now global!

“What magic powers my toy shop, my reindeer and my sleigh? The Plex Manufacturing Cloud!” - S.C.

With his new ERP, santa manages

workshops across the globe.

It’s a myth that the elves build all the toys at the

Santa’s new global strategy means he can make toys closer to where kids live,

reducing travel time and Magic consumption. His elves now source

materials locally, making them more responsive and efficient.

“Every gallon of Magic we save in transportation goes straight back into toy-shop- floor innovations!”
