Client Background

Our client operates within the wine distribution industry in Taiwan and is faced with the unique demands of wine storage and handling. The primary challenge was finding a solution that could ensure optimal conditions for wine storage and distribution while enhancing efficiency and accuracy.


Challenges

The wine distribution industry encounters numerous challenges, especially related to fulfillment and logistics, including:

  • Ensuring order correctness and completeness in fulfillment.

  • Maintaining high building quality and adhering to legal standards in facility operations.

  • Providing high-quality, timely, and appropriately temperature-controlled transport services.


Solutions Provided by ALP

ALP’s innovative smart warehousing solutions were tailored to meet the unique needs of the wine distribution industry. These solutions encompass:

  • One-Stop Solution

    ALP provided comprehensive services covering storage, inbound logistics, value-added services, delivery, bonded warehouse operations, and reverse logistics, effectively offering a full warehouse solution from space to service provision.

  • Superior Facility

    The facility, equipped with an Automated Storage and Retrieval System (ASRS), ensures reduced product risk and compliance with legal requirements.

  • Self-Operated Fleet

    ALP introduced a temperature-controlled transport fleet to maintain optimal conditions for wine transport, ensuring professional brand reputation and quality.


Key Results and Benefits

The implementation of ALP’s smart warehousing solutions delivered significant improvements across various aspects of the wine distribution process:

  • Fulfillment Efficiency

    Traditional warehouses typically achieved a D+2 order arrival timeframe. With ALP’s integration of ASRS, quality services, and a self-operated fleet, the Wine Hub achieved a D+1 order arrival timeframe.

  • Fulfillment Accuracy

    The expected accuracy in traditional warehouses was around 92%. ALP dramatically improved the level of accuracy with our advanced warehousing technologies and quality service.

  • Quality of Delivery

    While ambient trucking was the market practice, ALP’s use of self-owned temperature-controlled trucks ensured deliveries at a stable 20°C, significantly enhancing the quality of delivery and preserving the wine’s integrity.


The ALP Wine Hub represents a pioneering step in smart warehousing for the wine industry, setting a benchmark for future developments. Emerging technologies such as advanced AI and more sophisticated automation systems will continue to enhance the efficiency and accuracy of warehousing operations, driving further innovations in the industry.


By adopting ALP’s smart warehousing solutions, businesses in the wine distribution sector can achieve greater efficiency, flexibility, and growth, ensuring they remain competitive in a rapidly evolving market. The success of the ALP Wine Hub underscores the effectiveness of integrating cutting-edge technology with industry-specific expertise to transform logistics practices.
