Consumer goods (FMCG)

High volume, short lead times, a steady flow.

Move thousands of order lines from shelf to dock and from dock to store, with expiry dates and delivery windows in view at every step.

Use cases

Familiar challenges in consumer goods

And how Zagru One handles each of them.

  1. Challenge: Collecting high-volume orders from retail chains and distributors over different channels takes time.

    With Zagru One

    Every channel into one order pool

    Orders come in by EDI, API or bulk file and land in one pool. Advance ship notices (ASN) go back the same way.

  2. Challenge: When short-dated stock stays on the shelf, write-offs grow.

    With Zagru One

    FEFO and remaining shelf life

    The earliest expiry ships first, and a lot below the customer's required remaining shelf life is not picked. Lots nearing expiry are flagged in advance.

  3. Challenge: During promotions, warehouse capacity and docks fill up at once.

    With Zagru One

    Wave picking and dock appointments

    Orders leave through wave, batch or zone picking; trucks arrive by appointment, and the dock board shows the day's load hour by hour.

  4. Challenge: Matching trucks to the right loads for multi-drop distribution takes effort.

    With Zagru One

    Load planning and routing

    Loads are grouped by region and vehicle, and suitable empty trucks are suggested. Deliveries are tracked en route; delays land in the control tower.

Zagru One planning screen: loads awaiting a truck on the left, empty trucks filtered by region on the right
Planning: pick the loads, and the best-fitting empty trucks are listed first.

Standards and compliance

The rules consumer goods works to

Built into the daily work, with no extra step.

  • GS1 barcodes and labels

    Product, lot and expiry date are read from GS1 barcodes; pallets get GS1-128 SSCC labels.

  • Lot and expiry tracking

    Where each lot came from and where it went is tracked; FEFO is applied at picking.

  • EDI messages

    Orders and advance ship notices exchanged in EDIFACT and ANSI X12.

  • Turkish e-invoice and e-waybill

    Shipping and sales documents are issued through your e-document provider.

Zagru One keeps records and runs checks according to these rules; it does not replace a certificate or an official approval.
