Warehouse/DC fullfilment
The range of online stores is growing, and the product ranges increase accordingly. The shopping experience is largely already digitalized, and now it is time to digitalize the logistics for webstores. In order to ensure fast delivery at a competitive price, it is essential to optimize picking process that is the single biggest source of cost and use of time in the order handling process. Warehouses operating in single channel, multi-channel, cross-channel and omni-channel environment need to also solve how they fulfill the requirements coming through different channels.
At the same time the popularity of dark store picking is declining, as on-line stores are moving towards multi-channel logistics. Picking inside the store provides for a more agile operation. Picking directly from the shop floor also reduces the need for maintaining large warehouse premises.
