Revolutionising Food Logistics: The Game-Changing Three-Temperature Warehouse

HAVI has invested in a modern, high-tech logistics center in Portugal that supplies its food service customers in the country. www.mecalux.com/case-studies/...
The center is divided into three areas that operate at different temperatures: -20°C, refrigerated and ambient. Mecalux has supplied all the storage systems, featuring two automated warehouses, pallet racks, drive-in racks and the Pallet Shuttle system. In addition, it has deployed the Easy WMS warehouse management system that has been interfaced with the HAVI WMS to align stock control and the goods dispatching sequence.
🔊 Luis Ferreira, General Manager, HAVI Portugal - "Dividing the DC into different areas at different temperatures enables us to accommodate all our clients’ service needs as well as their entire product range. These goods run the gamut from those that need to be kept at ambient, refrigerated and frozen temperatures. We’re able to maintain the cold chain in our facility thanks to sensors that are operational 24 hours. They send us alerts in case of drops in temperature or temperatures that go above or below the established limits. This way, we can guarantee that the entire cold chain remains unbroken in our facility. The Mecalux software, which is connected to our own warehouse management system, is essential for us."
Revolutionising Food Logistics: Advantages for HAVI
-Sorting goods: the warehouse has been designed in three zones, where different storage solutions have been enabled for efficient warehousing and management of goods.
-Order sequence: Easy WMS is responsible for sequencing the orders to be prepared and sending them to the preload area, where they are sorted by order or transport route.
-Technology and safety: all the technological elements installed here mean the warehouse complies with the highest safety standards both in terms of the goods and the operators.
-Great place to work: HAVI has modernised its working environment, making it a more attractive place to work for operators who can learn new skills when operating the technology and the installation.
