System Logistics for Ipertosano Meat

Born in 1970 as a small family-owned supermarket, Tosano Group is today one of the best rooted and expanding businesses in the North Eastern area of Italy, across the cities of Verona, Vicenza, Mantua, Brescia, Venice, Padua and Ferrara.
With its directly managed hypermarkets, it is one of the leading companies in the food sector. It offers consumers over 40.000 food SKU’s with a vast choice of "big brands" and an ever increasing space dedicated to small and medium-sized Italian food producers.
Having achieved the aims set with the first three plants delivered by System Logistics (two for the dry ambient and one for frozen), Tosano Group identified the need to automate another sector which up to that time operated through manual processes: the meat.
The solution implemented by System Logistics features some technologies that differentiate it from other intralogistics suppliers on the market: picking of individual packages.
The particular feature of the system supplied is the handling and storage of individual packages, boxes and cartons instead of entire pallets. It is all integrated with our automatic picking systems and best fitting software for creating mixed pallets through an in-line palletising station without a well.
The plant covers an area of 4,200 square metres on a single floor. It operates at a temperature between 0° and 4°C and is sized to manage a daily flow of 15,000 picking packages.
