The Operations Podcast with Fexingo · 2026-08-02 · 6 min
In this episode of The Operations Podcast, Lucas and Luna dive into the world of warehouse picking and the surprising way one distribution center slashed its error rate by 90 percent. It wasn't a robot overhaul or a new WMS - it was a simple change in how orders were batched and how pickers were assigned. We break down the psychology behind picking errors, the role of 'zoning' and 'batch picking,' and why a small Midwest retailer pulled it off without a tech arms race. If you're in logistics, e-commerce, or just curious about how your package gets to you faster and more accurately, this is the episode for you. Tune in for practical insights you can apply tomorrow, no matter your operation's size. #WarehouseOperations #PickingAccuracy #LogisticsEfficiency #OrderFulfillment #DistributionCenter #LeanOperations #ProcessImprovement #Business #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #SupplyChain #EcommerceOperations #WarehouseManagement #OperationalExcellence #BatchPicking #ZoningStrategy #ErrorReduction #MidwestRetail Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
