Move More And Keep Food Safety In Check

Nearly 49% of consumers are purchasing more groceries online, contributing to 40% growth in sales. Are you prepared to meet surging demands?

Challenges

Transform Your Greatest Challenges Into Opportunities

Despite over 288 million square feet of distribution space, food distributors are still busting at the seams.

SKU Proliferation

The demand for more food choices is causing SKU counts to skyrocket – creating inefficiencies and laboring picking processes.

Be in charge of your situation

  • Use variable height picking processes to increase SKU capacity
  • Place slower-moving SKUs above faster-moving ones for efficient access to frequently picked items
  • Add case flow lanes to pick lines to accommodate more SKUs

Delivery Expectations

Urbanisation is increasing; forcing drivers to squeeze more stops into tighter delivery windows.

Exceed delivery demands

  • Stay charged longer and up to 2x faster with lithium-ion batteries
  • Help to empower your operator with greater manoeuverability in tight spaces
  • Reduce stress and stabilise loads to help optimise control and operator confidence

Food Safety

Protect your operations from contamination and meet growing regulatory pressures.

Make food safety non-negotiable

  • Reduce bacteria absorption by using impenetrable materials  
  • Achieve greater transparency to help isolate concerns to reduce product loss
  • Utilise approved, inspection-ready, non-toxic food-grade lubricants.

Labour Retention

Finding qualified labor is tough – retain your top talent and reduce turnover.

Retain talent and reduce turnover

  • Redirect workers to more value-added tasks by deploying robotic solutions
  • Offer advanced ergonomic lift truck solutions to help reduce musculoskeletal problems related to operation
  • Use telematics to simplify checklists and reinforce positive behavior

Tight Profit Margins

Heightened competition is increasing pricing pressures, resulting in lower margins.

Increase profitability and bring more to the table

  • Automate repetitive tasks and help reduce operating costs
  • Right-size your fleet, reduce administrative costs and extend useful life of equipment
  • Utilise solutions to help reduce picking costs and increase pallets moved per hour
