Top-Tier Express Courier in Thailand Samut Prakan Hub
9.6-Meter High-Bay Racking Optimization Project
Key Results
Capacity Expansion: Available Storage Capacity Increased by 62%
Throughput Optimization: Sorting & Turnover Efficiency Improved by 55%
Financial Impact: Zero Need for External Temporary Warehouse Rentals During Peak Seasons
Project Pain Points
The express courier transit hub covers an area of 2,600㎡. Under its legacy operations, parcels of mixed sizes were stacked disorganized on the floor, and the warehouse picking aisles were poorly planned. During promotional peak seasons, a sudden surge in order volumes would lead to immediate capacity saturation. To manage the overflow, the enterprise was forced to regularly lease external off-site warehouses, causing its warehouse operational expenditure to spike year after year.
Core Solutions
■Vertical Space Utilization: Erected 9.6-meter-high heavy-duty selective pallet racking systems, supported by specialized zone-specific sorting trolleys.
■Strategic Zone Allocation: re-engineered the layout into dedicated storage zones based strictly on parcel dimensions and transit batches.
■Picking Path Optimization: Remapped and streamlined the entire facility's picking traffic flow to minimize travel distances and bottlenecks.
Business Value Delivered
■Significant Capacity Boost: Upgraded available storage space by 62% by fully exploiting vertical height, enabling the facility to absorb peak parcel surges comfortably without needing external overflow space.
■Accelerated Hub Throughput: Increased sorting and transit turnover efficiency by 55%. The optimized traffic flows accelerated parcel retrieval and dispatch rhythms, firmly guaranteeing end-to-end delivery timelines.
■Effective Cost Governance: Completely eliminated reliance on seasonal external warehouse rentals. Storage overheads are now strictly controlled, yielding sustained optimization of the hub's bottom-line operational costs.
