Back to the Brewery: Solvo.WMS at the Moscow Brewing Company Production Warehouse

It’s the height of summer so it’s not surprising to see higher than normal demand for refreshing drinks including beer. The capacity of production warehouse is increasing and turnover is at a maximum. How can we ensure that everything is done and shipped out on time while also avoiding any errors? The solution to these problems faced by the Moscow Brewing Company was presented by Solvo.WMS.

Main characteristics of The Moscow Brewing Company:
• Total warehouse area is approximately 30,000 m2;
• Height of warehouse spaces – 6 m, 12 m;
• Total product throughput at the warehouse complex - over 100,000 pallets;
• Product assortment (SKU) - over 300.

The warehouse is divided into four zones – each with its own load handling specifics:
1. Zone for ready-made items received from production (floor-stack storage)
2. Zone for distribution (rack storage)
3. Keg storage zone (special tare requiring high-rise stacks)
4. Accumulator zone (used for storing low-velocity goods)
