Picking

How picking can speed up the efficiency of your operation

With the growing demand for efficiency in the supply chain, picking (the task of selecting and removing products from a warehouse to fulfill an order) has become increasingly crucial. This process is especially important in the refrigerated logistics market, where precision and speed are essential to maintain product quality.

But to begin with, let's understand what picking is?

Picking is a crucial step in warehouse management and distribution logistics.This is the process of selecting and collecting individual products or unit loads from inventories to fulfill a specific order. During picking, warehouse operators locate, select and remove products from shelves or storage areas, preparing them for packaging and shipping to the customer.

 

There are different picking methods, depending on the size of the stock, customer demand and the complexity of the products. Some of the most common picking methods include:

Picking by Order

In this method, each order is handled individually. Operators collect the products needed for a specific order, often using data collection devices such as barcode scanners to ensure accuracy.

Lot Picking

This method involves collecting products in large quantities to fulfill several similar orders. Operators select items in batches, reducing travel time within the warehouse.

Picking by Zone

In this method, the warehouse is divided into zones and each operator is responsible for collecting products only in their assigned zone. This improves efficiency and reduces travel time as operators do not have to travel throughout the warehouse for each order.

Wave Picking

In this method, orders are grouped into processing waves based on criteria such as location, priority, or product characteristics. Operators collect products for multiple orders at once, optimizing workflow.

Picking efficiency is essential for customer satisfaction and supply chain optimization. An accurate and fast picking process helps to avoid order errors, minimize delivery delays and maximize warehouse productivity.

Customer satisfaction

The efficiency of the picking process plays a fundamental role in customer satisfaction. When orders are correct and delivered quickly, customers are satisfied and confident in the company that supplies the products.

 

Efficient picking ensures that the correct products are selected, in the appropriate quantity, and prepared for shipping without delay. This minimizes order errors, avoids delivery delays and improves the overall customer experience. 

Imagine a customer who placed an order for refrigerated products for your business. When receiving the order, he expects all items to be correct and in perfect condition. If the picking process is efficient, the right products will be selected, ensuring order accuracy. Furthermore, fast picking allows the order to be prepared and shipped quickly, meeting delivery time expectations.

 

Customer satisfaction is fundamental to the success of any business. When customers are satisfied with their shopping experience and receive products as expected, they are more likely to return and recommend the company to others. Additionally, satisfied customers are less likely to request returns or complaints related to picking errors.

 

We have a proven track record of high customer satisfaction. This is partly due to the efficiency of our picking processes and the other logistics services offered.
