An automated storage and retrieval system (ASRS) combines equipment and controls to handle, store and retrieve materials or products as needed with precision, accuracy and speed under a defined degree of automation. 

Expected to open in 2025, it will be among the largest automated CPG distribution centers in North America.

Many of the world’s largest grocery retailers are now investing in automated order fulfillment solutions to optimize the handling of fresh fruit, vegetables, bakery items and dairy products across their distribution networks.

The company’s advanced operator assist solution is available on 13 additional Yale lift truck models.
