Quality as the talking point – the key factor for logistics
No other branch is so influenced by factors such as reliability and quality of production or cost awareness and constantly changing trends in demand as the foodstuffs industry.
Especially in the food sector, public interest particularly focuses on the traceability of goods and obligation of documentation.
Fluctuating customer demand means reducing stock levels. Constantly
changing production orders and shorter manufacturing cycles influence daily processes and call for automation to cope with peaks in demand. This is something which also affects the beverage industry – drinks are fast-moving consumer goods and therefore dependent on functioning procurement and production flows.
Westfalia's patented Satellite® warehouse has established itself as a particularly efficient, space-saving and economical solution, especially for the foodstuffs industry. Such usage even under the most extreme temperature conditions as required e.g., for refrigerated products, acts as the benchmark for performance in warehousing logistics.
