Food & Beverage

The Grocery market in Italy is particularly complex and segmented, characterised by large scale movements of short shelf-life products.
The wide range of substitute items and poor customer product loyalty, particularly towards large scale retail products, reduce margins and make stock shortages critical.

Warehousing and distribution of fast moving products must also respond to the increasing demand for batch traceability and product quality security. Logistics, whether for companies dealing with industry operators or for those using it for internal management, must be supported by effective information systems.

Click Reply™ WM responds to industry needs with:

  • Rapid and efficient dispatch of orders to respond to dynamic consumption demand
  • Batch traceability, quality control, management of expiry dates and stock rotation
  • Management flexibility to respond to changing needs of large scale retail trade
  • Integration between the company’s and the distributor’s information systems, which are increasingly interconnected in their approach to services and not just where data is concerned.

  • Incoming weight check
  • Allocation rules related to physical item details and item accounting status (sampling, rejected, etc.)
