For this episode of Talking Supply Chain, Bob Trebilcock traveled to Lodi, Ca. to visit with Kent Mann, the vice president of operations for Trinchero Family Estates – the 2nd largest family-owned winery in the U.S. – and Markus Schmidt, the president of Swisslog Americas.
Before taking a tour of Trincher’s Lodi bottling plant and distribution center, the trio sat down to talk about what it took to design and implement one of the most highly-automated facilities in the industry, including a high rise AS/RS from Swisslog capable of handling more than 4 million cases at any given time.
