Slotting

Assignment of products to warehouse locations based on velocity, size, affinity, ergonomics and replenishment needs.

Examples

  1. 01Slotting places the 200 fastest-moving items at waist height near the dispatch area and slow movers in the upper racks.
  2. 02Every quarter, the warehouse review checks slotting against new sales data, because fast movers change with the season.
  3. 03Re-slotting after the summer peak cuts travel distance per order line by 30 %.
