Products used:

LKQ is a distributor of spare parts and accessories for cars and truck. It’s present with several locations throughout the Czech Republic.

In addition it has also an e-commerce.

The space inside the warehouse was not optimized. The goods were not tracked and it was difficult to identify exactly the position. It was necessary to implement a system to speed up the shipments of goods.
