In Beuningen, clearly visible from the A73, is the eye-catching distribution center of Quantore, the Netherlands’ largest wholesaler of office supplies. Quantore is a cooperative for independent office supply traders in the Benelux and is constantly on the move to optimize the efficiency of the delivery of their ever-increasing range. By significantly expanding the distribution center and putting an extra shuttle system with 30,000 conveyor bins into operation, Quantore can anticipate the needs of the customer even better. Whether in the field of product range expansion or in the field of sustainability.
The current Quantore has its origins in 1920. After more than a hundred years of growth, reforms and new collaborations, there is a rock-solid cooperative with 420 members, 1,600 sales points and one distribution center with a particularly high service level. Quantore, for example, delivers 98% of orders within 24 hours and 99.66% of orders are delivered without errors. A considerable achievement for an organization with 69,000 pick locations from which 840,000 orders are processed annually. In total, Quantore’s range contains more than 24,000 items.
The largest recent expansion is the second OSR-32 system that was commissioned last summer. In its current form, the new shuttle system offers space for 30,000 containers. Schiphorst produced a total of 36,000 Contecline containers for this order.
