Case Study: Pharmapool AG boosts order picking efficiency with SSI Schaefer

Pharmapool AG - Customer Case Study

The customer, Pharmapool AG, a Swiss pharmaceuticals wholesaler, faced a challenge as its existing warehouse could not meet modern order fulfilment demands. To optimize internal processes, the company partnered with SSI SCHAEFER for a new warehouse and picking concept, which included conveying systems, RF picking, and ergonomic picking stations.

SSI SCHAEFER implemented a semi-automated system, collaborating from the project's inception on the layout. The solution connected individual picking areas with automatic conveyor technology, creating a single, transparent system. This resulted in a 30% increase in order picking efficiency, a significantly faster material flow, and an error rate that dropped to virtually zero for Pharmapool AG.
