Conference success

'Efficiency through Automation' was the message given to guests attending SSI Schaefer's annual Automation Day Conference that recently took place in Liverpool. The event highlighted the advantages of implementing automation into existing logistics operations through presentations delivered by leading market experts.

Over 70 delegates attended the event, representing some of the country's largest retailers, all wanting to take tips away on how to make significant efficiency improvements to their own operations. They came to get a closer look at how TJ Morris, the UK's fastest growing discount retailer, has successfully implemented automation into its existing storage and distribution centre resulting in increased storage capacity, maximum product pick efficiency and low labour overheads.
