Martin's Famous Pastry Shoppe, Inc., a family owned and operated bread and roll manufacturer, has overcome some growing pains. Since the 1950s, the business has expanded from a home garage business into two commercial baking plants and continues to grow and flourish in areas of established distribution. Martin's was looking for a solution to resolve space issues and order fulfillment errors thanks to high seasonal demand. "Our Chambersburg, Pennsylvania facility experiences a significant impact from the seasonality of hamburger and hot dog roll sales throughout the summer months," said Steve Mitchell, engineering manager at Martin's. "As a result, we were struggling with space constraints in our warehouse, as well as risk of order fulfillment errors." They recently installed Westfalia's warehouse automation technology at the facility. With Westfalia's automated storage and retrieval system (AS/RS) and Savanna.NET Warehouse Execution System (WES), Martin's has improved efficiency, accuracy, and traceability of finished goods.
