“The new system is designed to operate in our tough warehouse environment and will provide a real benefit to us by giving us real-time visibility into the facility with 100 per cent accuracy. More importantly, it will give our customers the ability to check the exact status of any receipt at any time.” – John Swinnerton, Director of Logistics, Dreisbach

The Benefits:
