Outdated inventory system: Deuter's warehouse relied on an outdated inventory system of manual warehouse processes that couldn't keep pace with rapid growth for Europe’s largest backpack manufacturer.
Inefficient picking processes and high error rates: confined in a 6,500 square-meter warehouse, inefficient picking paths and high error rates in order processing made it difficult to meet growing demand.
Limited scalability and visibility: Deuter couldn’t scale operations and a lack of real-time inventory visibility made it difficult to optimize warehouse management.
