Case Study: ASDA achieves doubled picking speed and 99.8% accuracy with Swisslog Holding's AutoStore solution

Asda - Customer Case Study

ASDA, one of Britain’s leading retailers with over 180,000 colleagues and more than 550 stores, needed to improve space utilization and throughput in its complex Lutterworth integrated distribution center while supporting several thousand product lines and future growth. To address these challenges ASDA engaged Swisslog Holding and implemented the AutoStore solution to handle small-case lines more efficiently.

Swisslog Holding installed AutoStore without disrupting operations, enabling maximum storage density and halving picking time — ASDA now picks at twice the previous rate with 99.8% accuracy. The implementation improved space efficiency, supported continued expansion, and kept store shelves stocked reliably around the clock.
