Client Quote:

 

We had a requirement to consolidate distribution from three less than optimum operations into one highly automated order selection facility. The challenge we presented to DPI was great. In essence we said, ‘We want to increase our SKU count, distribute a lot more of it faster and with a higher degree of accuracy. However,’ we added, ‘we want to do it from a much smaller location.’ DPI delivered with an innovative design that maximized cube utilization in a smaller footprint. The new system has helped us reach our objective of warehousing and distributing more SKU’s in a more productive and efficient fashion.
