Today, Novaltia operates five distribution centres and delivers to more than 1,000 pharmacies – up to five times daily – ensuring all their pharmacies are always provided with medicines. The two companies have been partners for 24 years. “Our successful collaboration has been characterised by mutual trust. KNAPP goes above and beyond covering our general needs, as they understand the diversity and complexity of our processes,” emphasises Fernando Castillo, CEO, Novaltia. As an industry leader, Novaltia has always prioritised the use of innovative technologies and is already benefitting from KNAPP solutions at two locations. Together, they continually expand and optimise their existing distribution centres.
Innovative, sustainable shuttle solution
Novaltia selected KNAPP’s comprehensive all-in shuttle solution. The five-aisle OSR Shuttle Evo system with around 49,000 storage locations supplies four ergonomic Pick-it-Easy Evo work stations. Additionally, two OSR shuttle sorters are set up specifically for dispatch.
The entire warehouse is engineered for an impressive throughput of 1,200 order containers per hour and has a capacity of more than 40,000 SKUs.
