Case Study
Tote return system improves throughput!
Conveyor Solutions lived up to their name by providing the perfect system to handle Chelsea & Scott’s needs.

“We no longer have to push the totes through the entire facility to get the order out the door,” says David Kizer, director of distribution for Chelsea & Scott. “The pick tote can be placed on the conveyor in the back of the warehouse and move all the way to the pack station without intervention. The highest payback may be at the outbound scanning area. Before, this area was continually jammed with product. We had two or more people working in close quarters and always behind on the scanning/weighing process. Now, a single employee can run this area comfortably with minimal lifting of product.”
