A new warehouse for Lifestage Solutions
The new Lifestage Solutions warehouse site in Huttwil (BE) provides the space needed for the company to expand further.
Lifestage Solutions is an important partner for nursing homes and home care organisations. The company supplies medical materials and supports service providers with a digital platform for the fully automated ordering and invoicing of consumables and care products. Lifestage Solutions has been a business unit within the Galenica network since 2021.
Lifestage Solutions has experienced strong growth in recent years. The company will continue to develop in the future as it plays an important role in Galenica’s B2B strategy. It was therefore time to move out of the previous small, cramped warehouse in Eriswil (BE).
As of late April 2024, the new warehouse site is in nearby Huttwil (BE). It offers numerous advantages: it has more space for employees, new packing tables and better industrial tablets. More efficient use is being made of space by taking advantage of the building’s height; routes have been optimised; and new forklifts and pallet stretchers are being introduced. When choosing the new location, it was important for Lifestage Solutions to stay local to retain the logistics team of more than 20 employees.
But before Lifestage Solutions employees could reap the benefits of improved operations and greater efficiency, they first had to relocate all of their stock and working materials to around 2,000 shelf spaces and 800 pallet spaces – without disrupting day-to-day business.
