Clothing & Retail Distribution Industry Conveyors

The clothing and retail distribution industry is part of an integrated system called the supply chain. A retailer purchases products in large quantities from manufacturers and ship them to smaller retail stores. The retailers have distribution centres where products are stored and sorted using conveyor systems and finally loaded into trucks to be delivered to the retail stores.

Most retail distribution centres are optimized to be agile, innovative and fast. Conveyor automation can eliminate the need for manual handling of the products and improve the efficiency of the supply chain. Having the proper materials handling system in place is critical to the success of a distribution centre.

There is many different types of conveyor systems that can be used in a retail distribution centre. Choosing the right conveyor system for the operation and volume is the key to success.

With our many years of experience we have implemented many materials handling systems in the retail industry.
