Case Study: AutoStore boosts fulfillment capacity and speed with Arvato's AutoStore automation

AutoStore boosts capacity by 30% with Arvato

a leading brand in technical athletic apparel needed a flexible and reliable fulfillment solution to keep up with rising customer expectations in the fast-paced UK market. To address this, Arvato expanded its existing AutoStore system at its Hams Hall facility to provide the necessary capacity and stable operational setup for the new client.

Arvato completed the expansion in just over three months, boosting the AutoStore system's storage capacity by 30% to 87,600 bins and increasing the number of robots to 165. This resulted in a significant performance increase, with daily order picking capacity rising from 17,000 to over 26,000 orders during peak season and enabling the handling of over 90,000 units per day. The project's success, building on Arvato's record-fast initial implementation, provided seamless onboarding and high-performance fulfillment from day one.
