Beauty products chain Ulta Beauty has been posting some pretty profits lately, and it credits supply chain improvements for its growth. The company's 2018 fourth-quarter sales increased by 9.7%; for the full year, net sales increased 14.1% to $6.7 billion. CEO Mary Dillon is focused on revamping the enterprise's supply chain. She pushed to open a new distribution center in Fresno, California, which is currently serving 235 stores. And to meet customer demands for speed, the company plans to provide two-day fulfillment by converting its Romeoville, Illinois, DC to a fast fulfillment center and opening a similar location in Jacksonville, Florida, by 2020.
