Case Study: Schaal Chocolatier achieves smarter chocolate storage and higher productivity with Interlake Mecalux

Schaal Chocolatier Automates Its Supply Chain in France

Schaal Chocolatier, a leading French producer of luxury chocolate bonbons, needed to free up space in its production center, protect sensitive products from temperature fluctuations, and improve control over growing inventory. To address these challenges, the company worked with Interlake Mecalux and deployed an automated storage and handling setup supported by Easy WMS.

Interlake Mecalux implemented a 2,000 m² automated warehouse connected to the Geispolsheim production site, with stacker cranes, conveyors, a transfer car, and Easy WMS managing pallet movements and temperature-controlled storage. The system improved hygiene, reduced operational costs, accelerated order preparation and picking, ensured FIFO, and provided real-time tracking of more than 6,200 pallets, while supporting daily throughput of 180 to 240 pallets.
