What is order picking?

Order picking, or order picking, is the process of selecting appropriate products from the warehouse to process customer orders. This requires a systematic approach and a streamlined process to minimize errors and shorten delivery times.

There are different methods of order picking. Discrete order picking involves processing each order individually. Batch picking focuses on picking multiple orders simultaneously to increase efficiency. Zone picking involves employees working within specific warehouse areas and picking only products from their assigned area. Wave picking is a method in which orders are processed based on predetermined time periods.

What is order packing?

Order packing, or order packing, follows the picking process and includes carefully packing products for shipment. This process is crucial to prevent damage during transport and ensure a professional appearance.

An effective packing strategy includes the use of appropriate packing materials for optimal protection, clear labeling and documentation for quick processing, and optimized packaging to reduce transportation costs.
