The Israel-based retailer based Shufersal is using Polymer Logistics RPCs in its new logistics center in Shoham, Israel.
The retailer recently opened a 550,000 square-foot logistics center, where the facility receives fresh produce and other perishables and distributes to 500 stores throughout the country, according to a news release.
Serving more than 2 million shoppers per week, Shufersal moves an internal pool of approximately one million Polymer Logistics RPCs through their automated warehouse and logistics system, according to the release.
The release said built-in QR codes on every crate allow distribution center vision, inventory, and traceability systems to quickly and accurately scan, record, locate, and follow every Polymer Logistics RPC that enters and leaves the facility.
“We are very pleased with the performance of Polymer Logistics RPCs, not only in our Shoham logistics center but also across our entire supply chain,” Avi Einy, head of the central distribution center, said in the release. “Their RPCs allow us to realize the full benefit of our automation systems, including increased distribution efficiency, optimized replenishment, and enhanced product quality and freshness at retail.”
Gideon Feiner, CEO of Polymer Logistics, said in the release that the company was honored to work with Shufersal.
“Globally, the move towards automated production and supply chain logistics is accelerating,” Feiner said in the release. Polymer Logistics RPCs are a proven choice to facilitate automation, and we stand ready to collaborate and partner for successful transformations across the supply chain.”
