Medline, a major medical supply distributor, faced the challenge of scaling its operations to meet demand while maintaining speed and accuracy, a difficult task given its large scale. To address this, Medline partnered with Swisslog to implement their AutoStore automated storage and retrieval systems.

Swisslog implemented 20 AutoStore systems across Medline's network. This solution improved pick rates by two to four times and enabled next-day delivery to 95% of the U.S. The long-term partnership with Swisslog provided Medline with the operational flexibility and resilience to strengthen its position as a supply chain leader in the healthcare industry.
