Coolshop Transforms Warehouse Operations with Geek+ and Apport Systems

The Customer

Coolshop.com is a Danish-based e-commerce platform that has grown to become a powerhouse in B2B sales as well. With a wide range of product offerings and high service expectations from its customers, Coolshop recognizes the importance of staying ahead with scalable, efficient, and innovative warehouse operations.

The Challenge

Coolshop faced three key challenges in its warehouse operations, driven by its rapid growth and the evolving demands of e-commerce and B2B markets:

• Meeting High Order Volumes: The fast pace of e-commerce required streamlined logistics to manage high order volumes efficiently and accurately.
• Ensuring Precision: With varying customer profiles, order accuracy became critical to maintaining customer satisfaction.
• Reducing Environmental Impact: Coolshop sought to align its operations with sustainable practices, including reducing packaging waste.
  

Our Solution

Coolshop partnered with Apport Systems and Geek+ to deploy a fully integrated automation solution that addressed its operational challenges. This included a dual focus on robotics and advanced packing technology.

• Geek+ Robotics and Apport WMS:

Geek+ robotics systems, integrated with Apport WMS, streamlined the picking and packing processes for increased speed and precision. The robots efficiently navigated tasks such as item transport and order consolidation, significantly reducing handling times.

• OPERA Packing Machine:

To complement the robotics system, Coolshop implemented the OPERA packing machine, automating the process of product boxing and ensuring optimal packaging for each order. The machine minimized packaging waste by adjusting box sizes to fit orders precisely.

These technologies worked seamlessly together to create a highly cohesive and efficient operation.
