Astrup has been able to increase picking performance and productivity by 200% with centralized warehouse logistics. The demand for skilled workers has eased significantly and orders can now be processed within standard working hours. Astrup's customers also benefit: orders can be delivered faster and material damage, which previously occurred due to manual movements, is almost non-existent.
