The challenge

How to design a distribution center for diverse small goods and intensive manual picking?

Working on a solution together

CEVA Logistics faced a challenge in designing a new distribution center for a global fashion e-commerce giant. E-commerce often involves relatively small products, such as clothing, books, electronics, household goods, and home accessories. The high volume of SKUs requires a storage system that is optimized for small goods and provides efficient access for order pickers.

We developed a robust and modular shelving system for them. The racking is designed to handle high load capacities per shelf while being easily expandable. Thanks to adjustable shelf heights, we maximize space utilization, including mezzanine floors for optimal storage capacity.
