Zone Picking

Warehouse method where pickers are assigned to defined zones and orders move or consolidate across zones.

Examples

01With zone picking, each picker stays in one of four zones, and orders move on a conveyor from zone to zone.
02The warehouse review tracks zone picking workload, so no zone becomes a bottleneck during peak hours.
03Zone picking cuts walking distance per picker by 60 % compared with picking whole orders across the warehouse.
