Are you a seafood company?

Maritech’s seafood-specific Warehouse Management System is designed to help reduce costs through effective warehouse processes. It is aimed at those companies that need to receive and ship goods while maintaining an optimum utilization of space and knowing specifically where all goods are stored at any given time. Physical locations can be set up to contain racking, or set different positions based on pallets in racks. You may also define storage with optional placement. Items can be allocated from storage by using predefined packing lists that determines the exact location and units. Or you may select items from stock without considering the specific location.

The items are labelled with barcodes, and the process of selecting items is conducted using scanners. When items are allocated from storage, and are being transported further to customers, it is crucial that this is conducted as fast and efficiently as possible due to deadlines. Maritech WMS provides an at-a-glance visual overview of the storage locations and where the items to be allocated are placed. You also get functionality such as visual placement of items in stock, barcodes for placement registration and to ensure the correct item is selected, overview of outgoing orders, and remaining items on order.

Their solutions, customers and expertise are a natural fit with our business and further plans. Many of our customers already use their systems; they will benefit from an improved cold storage integration. EDI-Systems also delivers solutions for quality registration for fisheries and that likewise will be a good fit in the Maritech product range. At the same time, we will strengthen our expertise regarding 3rd-party warehousing and will now cover an even larger part of the value chain in the seafood industry.
