Spar expands central warehouse
SPAR will expand its existing logistics centre in Wels by more than 107,639 sq ft. The Austrian food retailer will gear its logistics processes towards future market requirements. The contract for the design and construction phase of the extension has been awarded to the Witron.
The central element of the expansion is Witron’s fully automated storage and picking system OPM (Order Picking Machinery). Equipped with 8 COM machines, the OPM for SPAR will be able to pick up to 66,500 dispatch units and cases onto pallets and roll containers per day – all in a store-friendly manner.
An eight-aisle AS/RS with 16 stacker cranes and 81,400 tray locations will feed the COM. A five-aisle high bay warehouse with five stacker cranes and 18,700 pallet locations will replenish the OPM system. Receiving and dispatch will be re-designed and optimised.
