Case Study: Rexel boosts omnichannel order picking with Interlake Mecalux

The Distributor of Electrical Materials Rexel Opens a New Warehouse in France

Rexel, the electrical materials distributor in France, wanted to expand its logistics capacity and strengthen its omnichannel strategy as order volumes grew. To support the management of 26,000 SKUs and the dispatch of 1,800 daily orders, Rexel worked with Interlake Mecalux to equip its new logistics center in Cestas with storage systems suited to a wide mix of products.

Interlake Mecalux implemented selective pallet racks, shelving for picking, and cantilever racks to handle everything from small tools to bulky and long items. The solution gave Rexel direct access to goods, improved picking speed and warehouse organization, and increased storage capacity from two smaller warehouses to one larger site with 4.46 acres of space, helping the company serve customers more efficiently.
