What ROI can I expect from automating agri-food logistics?
Your return on investment depends on where your current losses sit today: spoilage from broken cold chains, picking errors on similar-looking references, or manual labor absorbing your seasonal peaks. Automation addresses each of these directly, by reducing shrinkage, tightening FIFO and FEFO compliance, and letting your throughput scale without a proportional increase in headcount. We build this business case together with you, starting from an audit of your current operations, so the numbers reflect your actual volumes and constraints rather than a generic industry average.
How long does an automated cold chain implementation take?
Timelines vary with the scope of your project, from a single automated storage solution to a full warehouse transformation spanning several temperature zones. What stays constant is our approach: a phased rollout that lets you keep operating while we deploy, tested against your real product flows before go-live. Our teams stay engaged well beyond commissioning, through lifecycle services designed to keep your installation performing as your volumes and your catalog evolve.
How is traceability ensured for perishable products?
Traceability starts with capturing batch numbers and SSCC codes at every touchpoint, from goods-in to final dispatch, so any product can be traced upstream and downstream in real time. Our WMS applies your FIFO and FEFO rules automatically, flags approaching use-by dates before they become a liability, and gives you the audit trail regulators and retail partners expect. In the event of a recall, this means isolating the affected batch in minutes, not days.
