Order Fulfillment Automated

In pursuit of excellence, we've adopted the Goods-to-Person model. Our Automated Mobile Robots (AMRs) retrieve products from storage and then strategically place these on a compacted pick wall. This makes for efficient picking and a 90% reduction in travel for our dedicated pickers. 

But that's not all. Our system employs Artificial Intelligence to analyze open orders. It spots similar orders and picks these consecutively. This reduces steps and slashes travel time. The system continually perfects the work plan, ensuring that Service Level Agreement (SLA) requirements are met on a consistent basis.

We routinely start each morning with our Picker Wall fully stocked overnight by AMRs, allowing our staff to hit the ground running from minute one.
