Case Study: Martin’s Famous Pastry Shoppe achieves 50% labor efficiency improvement and 95% order accuracy with Westfalia Tech. Inc.

Martin’s Famous Pastry Shoppe - Customer Case Study

Martin’s Famous Pastry Shoppe, a family‑owned bread and roll manufacturer, was struggling with time‑consuming, labor‑intensive manual order preparation that created warehouse space constraints, order fulfillment errors and employee safety concerns—especially during seasonal peaks. To solve this, Martin’s engaged Westfalia Tech. Inc. to deploy an automated storage and retrieval (AS/RS) solution integrated with an automated layer‑picking system (Cimcorp MultiPick) and Westfalia’s Savanna.NET® Warehouse Execution System.

Westfalia Tech. Inc. installed a high‑density AS/RS with tandem S/RMs, truck staging lanes and Cimcorp MultiPick, all orchestrated by Savanna.NET®, enabling about 1,873 pallet positions and fast single‑ and multi‑SKU fulfillment. The project increased space utilization by 50%, improved labor efficiency by 50%, raised order accuracy to 95%, eliminated reloads, boosted outbound throughput, and delivered farm‑to‑fork traceability exceeding FDA standards.
