How Altruan transformed their fulfillment with a cutting-edge WMS
Established in early 2021, Altruan quickly became a notable player in the E-Commerce world, focusing on health and hygiene products. With around 60 employees, the company has excelled in responding to evolving customer needs, especially during the pandemic. Altruan operates from a central warehouse in Bavaria with about 5,000 square meter and more than 3,000 SKU.
A young E-Commerce player in health and hygiene
In the small town of Massing, in Germany, Altruan GmbH, an up-and-coming company for the distribution of medical and surgical disposables, begins a story of change.
The E-Commerce player was founded in the midst of the turmoil of the pandemic and faced growth difficulties that threatened to slow down its promising development.
Results of the PULPO integration
1,000 parcels a day on outdated manual processes
Navigating the maze of warehousing
As order volumes skyrocketed, the once efficient manual processes in Altruan's warehouse became a confusing mess. The struggle to handle around 1000 parcels a day using outdated methods marked the turning point: the call for change was unmistakable.
Trembling on the road to innovation
The changeover was not without its hurdles. The integration of PULPO WMS posed a problem, particularly because Altruan prefers Shipcloud and at the time PULPO WMS was only integrated with Sendcloud. There were concerns that ongoing operations could be disrupted and the difficult task of getting staff used to a new system.
“Implementing PULPO WMS has been a game-changer for Altruan, particularly in achieving accurate inventory levels across all our sales channels. It's not just about having the right products in stock; it's about having the right information at our fingertips to make informed decisions. With PULPO, we've seen a remarkable improvement in our inventory accuracy, ensuring we meet our customer promises every time.”

A path with manageable pitfalls
Implementing PULPO was in most parts smooth.

The expertise and support made what could have been a challenging transition into a streamlined and effective upgrade of Altruan's operations.
