Case Study: Elektroimportøren boosts warehouse efficiency with AutoStore

Warehouse automation adds to Elektroimportøren’s success

Elektroimportøren, a Norwegian electrical equipment retailer, faced significant logistical challenges due to its rapid growth, which saw turnover increase from $22 million to $112 million. To manage this expansion without raising unit costs, the company needed a more efficient warehouse solution and turned to the AutoStore automation system.

Implemented by partner Element Logic, the AutoStore solution utilized a grid of 12 robots to manage 10,750 bins. This system streamlined order fulfillment, drastically improved workplace ergonomics, and consumed minimal power. The results for Elektroimportøren were substantial, yielding a return on investment in under two years while increasing overall efficiency and supporting further revenue growth.
