Distributor of Latin American food products in Europe, Goya, has expanded its warehouse in Casarrubios del Monte (Toledo province) with Mecalux’s semi-automated Pallet Shuttle.
Goya Europa, a subsidiary of the multinational Goya Foods Inc., is a distributor of Latin American food in Europe and provides more than 500 SKUs range from beans, flours, seasoning and tinned goods to beverages and snacks.
Goya Foods operates 26 production plants and multiple warehouses in Puerto Rico, the Dominican Republic, the
US and Spain.
The new storage system has boosted the company’s logistics performance, ensuring fast replenishment to 4,000 points of sale throughout Spain.
The project features five racking blocks measuring 8 metres high, with a capacity of around 3,000 pallets containing Goya tinned goods, beans, sweets, beverages and snacks.
Storage lanes with depths of up to 33 pallets maximise density and optimise available space.
Inside the lanes, a motorised shuttle moves autonomously to accelerate inbound and outbound flows, cut handling times and minimise operational errors.
A Goya representative said: “Mecalux’s semi-automated Pallet Shuttle gives us the flexibility we need to manage over 2,200 items and run a more efficient operation.”
