Use case HEINEKEN Deutschland and Logistikdienstleister Sirl

Drinks manufacturer HEINEKEN has opened a second German central warehouse in Weiden, Upper Palatinate to create a much more efficient system for organising its supply in southern and eastern Germany. Logistics service provider Sirl operates the warehouse and handles up to 3,500 pallets every day. Deliveries are made by lorry from HEINEKEN breweries in Europe and the products are stored in block and high-bay warehouses. But when it comes to maximising efficiency, the state-of-the-art industrial trucks from STILL are the real linchpin that keep the company’s complex drinks logistics running smoothly. STILL supplies modern electric forklift trucks equipped with lithium-ion technology as well as safety and assistance systems: a combination that makes the warehouse a prime example of a high-performance beverage logistics system that is sustainable, flexible and ready for seasonal fluctuations.
