Case study Weleda
- Cases
- Weleda
The Benelux head office of Weleda is located in Zoetermeer. There is a beautiful herb garden in front of the door. That is not marketing: Weleda produces on a large scale from Switzerland, Germany and France, and on a small scale from the herb garden at each location.
Serving completely different markets
The production and distribution of Weleda Benelux is divided in three areas: an international wholesaler, a webshop for private individuals and professionals and orders on prescription. This results in a warehouse with loose items and large pallets mixed together. The most important things for Weleda: quality of the goods and a flexible warehouse.
Making logistics simple
When they became a customer, Weleda was already working with Business Central. However, what would help the pharmaceutical company was a good Warehouse Management System, linked to Dynamics. Together with the end users at Weleda - in the office, in the quality department and in the warehouse - we were able to create a complete solution with HB SmartTrade and Tasklet.
Never make mistakes again
Weleda has two warehouses. Orders are received in Business Central, after which a packing slip with routing is compiled for the order pickers. The new way of working ensures fewer obsolete products and a streamlined order process.
In 2011, we were asked to roll out HB SmartTrade for other countries. This way, the way of working can also be adopted at other locations.
A warehouse where you no longer throw anything away
The Weleda warehouse has become a whole new world. But the world of Weleda is even bigger. Would you like to hear more about what HB SmartTrade has done for their quality control? Or how easily Weleda Benelux reports to the head office? We would be happy to tell you more about it!
