batch picking
Batch picking is a method used in warehouses to efficiently gather multiple orders at once. Instead of picking items for each order individually, workers collect items for several orders simultaneously. This approach reduces the number of trips needed to retrieve products, saving time and increasing productivity.
In batch picking, items are grouped based on their location in the warehouse. Workers follow a specific route to collect all items for the selected orders, which are then sorted and packed for shipping. This system helps streamline the order fulfillment process and can lead to faster delivery times for customers.
