“I recommend Ziirto’s development project to anyone who wants to improve their logistics and is motivated to increase the efficiency of their warehouse and production.”
KARI MELTOVAARA, CEO, Leipomo Rosten Oy
Our operations at the Voimakatu site have been growing rapidly due to Rostis and international expansion. We had noticed that our logistics needed more clarity and a more sensible setup. We were looking for external support and benchmarking, especially regarding the efficiency of the receiving process and the current state of the layout. We wanted to know whether our existing warehouse space was being used efficiently.
Work Study 360™ service
Duration: 10 days
Ziirto carried out task analysis for our logistics processes and created a plan to use both the receiving area and the warehouse more efficiently. From Ziirto’s development engineer we received clear assessments of where we have succeeded and where there is still room to improve. We got concrete short- and long-term development plans that make it safe for us to grow and expand our operations.
“Ziirto is not a logistics consultant, but a logistics professional.”
With the improvements from the development project, we were able to increase warehouse capacity by 44% and improve the receiving process efficiency by 29%.
After the first project, our collaboration expanded into a new development initiative aimed at better use of barcodes, and we are planning a second Ziirto Work Study 360™ project for the spring.
My past experiences with consultants have varied widely, so there was a bit of skepticism before the project. Ziirto exceeded my expectations — Ziirto is not a logistics consultant, but a logistics professional.
