PITTSBURGH — South Side-based American Eagle Outfitters (NYSE: AEO) has jettisoned its third-party logistics venture that it jumped into five years ago as it was aspiring to compete with Amazon and big-box retailers in getting e-commerce orders to customers.
Amid a report on a strong fourth quarter and fiscal 2025, the company’s leadership revealed it had exited its Quiet Logistics platform, a company based in Massachusetts with a robotics-based approach that operated distribution facilities in Boston, Chicago, Los Angeles, Dallas, St. Louis and Jacksonville, Florida, which American Eagle bought for $360 million at the end of 2021.
American Eagle Executive Chairman and CEO Jay Schottenstein acknowledged ending the Quiet Logistics venture in his recorded remarks prepared in advance since he was unavailable to be on the earnings call due to the death of his mother.
