Challenge: Peak gifting seasons place extraordinary pressure on warehouse operations, particularly for a leading U.S. floral distribution company, where fast, accurate fulfillment is central to the customer experience. In high-volume environments, legacy inventory processes and manual onboarding can create bottlenecks — driving up costs as demand peaks.

Solution: To address these challenges, the company adopted RFID-enabled warehouse automation, gaining real-time inventory visibility and more streamlined fulfillment workflows. The approach proved effective during seasonal surges, enabling faster order fulfillment and higher on-time delivery performance without adding labor complexity.

Results: Measurable impact
 RFID-driven inventory management helped the company achieve:
 • 45% reduction in indirect labor costs.
 • 33% decrease in operating expenses.
 • 87% improvement in handling order substitutions,
• Automated stock updates and alerts, which reduced manual audits and shortened onboarding time for seasonal staff.
