Malanico Retail

Restructure of technology, software and hardware

Think of any product that has to do with the nutritional and pharmaceutical needs of animals and Malanico Retail has it. With more than 6,000 different products, Malanico is the largest distribution partner for Dutch and Belgian pet shops, garden centres, DIY stores and webshops. The company asked Vanboxtel to completely restructure its technology, software and hardware.

The challenges

Dynamic and complex processes

Malanico faces some serious logistical challenges. This dynamic organisation is both a wholesaler and a logistics service provider and it handles online orders for retail customers, shipped directly to consumers. Additionally, the company processes major cross-dock streams on a daily basis: every evening, circa two hundred picked pallets come in from clients, which have to be forwarded to other clients in a matter of hours. Furthermore, the company has a cold-storage facility and an inventory of small-scale products. Vanboxtel’s job was to integrate the myriad processes of reception, storage and release of goods and order picking into a single system and operation.

Relevant solutions with this client case

Using the SaaS WMS in combination with fully integrated warehouse assets, we offer all the necessary services needed for your logistics process. Thanks to the complete service, you are guaranteed continuity in you logistics operation.

Voice

Saving up to 30% of your costs is just one of the benefits of using Vanboxtel’s voice-controlled order-picking solution. There is a reason why more than 5,000 warehouse employees use our voice solutions on a daily basis. Over the last twenty years, we have gone all-in on the development of this technology. For example, using artificial intelligence (AI) results in optimal speech recognition. New order pickers do not require any training; they can be sent out onto the work floor with a headset or voice vest immediately.

Logical pick flow and increased efficiency

Vanboxtel equipped Malanico’s warehouse with a fast wireless network and hardware access points. The Supply Chain Software has replaced paper picking lists and uses hand terminals and voice commands to create a logical pick flow and facilitate automatic order linking. By completing our courses, the staff of more than twenty pickers learned to work with the technology and work method. The result for Malanico? Fifteen to twenty percent more efficiency in the picking process. Since all steps are scanned and registered, the company has real-time insight into its various processes, inventory levels and defects.
