Case Study: Sandman achieves 500% faster picking with AutoStore

How Sandman Boosted Picking Speed by 500%

Sandman Group, a leading wholesale distributor of consumer electronics in the Baltic region, faced severe warehouse inefficiency and a lack of space for business expansion after demand surged unexpectedly. Their existing operations could not keep up with order volumes, which threatened growth and customer satisfaction. To address this, they partnered with vendor AutoStore to implement its automated storage and retrieval system.

AutoStore implemented a high-density storage system with 28 robots and 21,000 bins, deployed in just six months. The solution provided Sandman with a flexible and scalable infrastructure that drastically improved their operations. The results included a 500% increase in picking speed, a 30% improvement in accuracy, and a 50% reduction in stock shortages, allowing the company to support its rapid growth efficiently.
