Savannah Distributing has achieved a tenfold reduction in picking errors after 18 months of using Block One Automation's Dense Case Storage (DCS™) in its Georgia facility. The DCS™ system employs autonomous case-handling robots and vision technology to manage SKU accuracy and enhance warehouse efficiency.

This deployment, influenced by a pre-existing relationship with Block One, allows for operational flexibility, as cases remain in storage until needed, avoiding manual handling issues. Savannah's approach highlights the necessity of automation in wine distribution, differing from beer distributors, who prioritize high-volume SKU efficiency. The modular system enhances accuracy, speed, and adaptability within their existing space.
