Large Vitamin Retailer Again Selected Pcdata Pick-to-Light
East Granby, CT, February 26, 2015 --(PR.com)-- Europe’s largest retailer of vitamins and herbal food supplements again chose Pcdata, to modernize and expand their pick-to-light order handling system at their main United Kingdom Burton on Trent distribution center. The same pick-to-light technology is being used by customers in North America via Pcdata USA. Pcdata was profiled in Material Handling & Logistics.
The pick-to-light system is used to select orders for single items for their stores, whereas they use voice picking for the simpler picking of web orders and bulk picking (large items and full cartons). The Pcdata solution has the advantage that it can be implemented onto older existing racking. With in-depth knowledge of the Holland & Barrett operation, Pcdata optimized their processes at the same time upgrading Distrib PTL, the order picking software, to the latest version with a view to handling their plans for future growth. The number of picking zones was expanded from 24 to 28 with the capacity to handle almost 4000 SKU’s at single item level, up from their previous level of 3300 different items.
