B+S Logistik Achieves Rapid Ecommerce Growth with Warehouse Automation  

Using the Descartes pixi* WMS and its multi-order picking capabilities, we’re able to efficiently process anywhere from 2,000 to 10,000 parcel shipments per day.

B+S Logistik, a German logistics service provider (LSP), has expanded its contract logistics business with new business-to-consumer (B2C) ecommerce operations using the Descartes pixi* warehouse management solution (WMS) to support order fulfillment in fashion, food distribution and other segments.

2,000 to 10,000 Shipments Daily with Warehouse Automation:

  • Order receipt
  • Order Pick
  • Order Pack and Ship
  • Item availability
  • Visibility tracking  

B+S Logistik required flexibility and scale to support seasonal demands and other types of peaks in consumer buying behaviors inherent in the industries they serve. With Descartes, the company can onboard new customers quickly and cost effectively. Implementation of the warehouse automation software took only eight weeks and provides robust capabilities to manage the entire ecommerce fulfillment lifecycle.
