Double refreshment for brewing giant Anheuser-Busch InBev Group

At Spaten-Löwenbräu GmbH in Dachau, Germany, high season begins in April and ends with the traditional Oktoberfest in Munich – an absolute sales peak. The only way the beverage wholesaler can manage this highly seasonal business and prepare temporary staff for physically demanding beverage handling every year is if it has a well-placed logistics organization running in the background.

Faced with an increasing volume of orders, Spaten-Löwenbräu decided to automate the processes within its logistics operation. From the outset, the goals of the transformation were clearly defined: more transparency, better stock management and flexible use of seasonal workers.

The brewery giant was able to fix two big challenges at the same time by employing two highly complementary solutions from a single supplier. The first was a new feature-packed, modular Warehouse Management System (LFS) by EPG
