Micro-Fulfillment Centers: logistics at the heart of cities

Faced with new constraints, the urban environment is increasingly dense and has led to distribution points having less space, while maximizing customer service. Faced with these challenges, Savoye offers end-to-end and modular solutions, tailored precisely to the requirements of order picking for food shopping, whether via drive-throughs, home delivery or click & collect: with even more proximity, responsiveness and options available to the consumer.

Whether they are used to equip supermarket stores, main and satellite drive-throughs or even urban micro-fulfillment centers, our solutions provide the desired level of compactness and can be introduced in small areas from 500 (5380 sq. ft.) to 1500m² (16,145 sq. ft).

Goods-to-person preparation, combining high performance ergonomic picking stations with an automated product storage system, allowing time spent moving by operators to be eliminated

Buffering of finalized orders and sequenced consolidation at the time of collection, resulting in very short waiting times and flexible collection schedules
