The task

 

As well as two physical pharmacies, Kubilay Talu operates a mail-order pharmacy. The existing storage space was no longer sufficient. Roselius Logistiksysteme developed the new logistics concept with a focus on growth. The facility is designed to hold 3600 different items, with the aisles wide enough for two people to work side by side. The sustainable focus of the project made it important for the entire facility to be illuminated with energy-saving LED lighting controlled by motion detectors. Today, an average of 14,000 packets leave the warehouse every week.
