Anita Bodywear
Multi-tier shelving paves the way for expanding the product range of a manufacturer and retailer of lingerie and swimwear


Our customer

Anita Dr. Helbig GmbH is a manufacturer and retailer of lingerie and swimwear for expectant mothers. The regularly changing collection can also be ordered online.
Initial situation and customer requirements
- Manual order picking was to be optimised to increase pick rates of A, B and C-items.
- In order to achieve this goal, product storage had to be re-organised according to the results of an ABC inventory classification.
- More storage capacity was needed within the existing warehouse.
