Geek+ will implement the new PopPick Lite solution for the Danish lifestyle retailer Søstrene Grene at its DC in Venlo, Netherlands.

THE PROJECT deploys a Shelf-To-Person system, a total of 64 P1200 robots, 8 picking stations, more than 400 racks and 300 pallet location are working together on a surface of around 3000 sq m.

Søstrene Grene chief supply chain officer Claus Tjærby, says: “We saw a need to automate our warehouse systems, primarily to handle a changing product range and increasing volumes—something that would otherwise require extensive development of our logistics setup. That made integrator STL and Geekplus the right match for us.”

The new PopPick station brings a different way of working for employees that improves their ergonomics while increasing throughput and accuracy. The system brings pallet and boxes for picking operations. Both operations can be processed at the same time with boxes connected to a put wall with conveyors.
