About this listen
In this episode of The New Warehouse Podcast, Kevin Lawton chats with Naveen Chandra, Director of Distribution at EssilorLuxottica. Chandra oversees strategy across labor planning, slotting, and real-time operational control for a complex, high-SKU distribution network.
EssilorLuxottica is best known for eyewear brands like Ray-Ban and Oakley, but its footprint spans eyewear, wearables, retail, and vertically integrated supply chains. The conversation explores how the company approaches automation, forecasting, and slotting while keeping human workers central to warehouse design. Rather than chasing lights-out operations, Chandra emphasizes resilience, safety, and reducing cognitive load for human-centered warehouse automation.
