Line spare parts, lot traceability and food distribution without interruptions: from production to grocery retail and foodservice
In the food & beverage industry your warehouse is not just a logistics function. It is an integral part of production and distribution. A missing spare part stops the machine and puts in-process raw materials at risk. Misplaced changeover tooling slows down the production line.A wrong or out-of-stock label can block a shipment to a grocery retailer or a foodservice customer.
With ICAM automated storage systems you organize spare parts, tooling, consumables and food products in a structured way: every item tracked, easily accessible and stored under the right conditions. Companies in this industry that have adopted ICAM solutions have reduced order fulfillment times by up to 70%, cut pick list preparation time by 50% and freed up tens of square meters to return to production or catalog expansion.
We support the entire food & beverage supply chain
From production through distribution to grocery retail and foodservice, every player manages different materials with specific needs. ICAM solutions adapt to each one.
Food manufacturers
When the line stops, raw materials are already degrading
Whether you produce pasta, beverages, dairy, canned goods or packaged foods, your production lines cannot stop mid-cycle. When a spare part or changeover component is missing, the machine stops while raw materials continue to degrade.
With ICAM automated storage systems, line spare parts and changeover tooling are stored in an orderly way, searchable by machine or SKU code and available within seconds. Operational continuity stops depending on luck.

Packagers and bottlers
Faster changeovers, zero errors
Packagers and bottlers manage dozens of different formats every day: bottles, caps, stars, guides, worm screws and format-specific components. Every changeover requires a precise set of tooling. Searching for it across disorganized shelving extends line downtime and reduces efficiency.
With ICAM automated storage systems every changeover kit is identified, retrievable via guided picking and available within seconds — less downtime, more production shifts.

Food distributors, grocery retailers and foodservice operators
Lot traceability and accurate picking on date-sensitive products
Managing food warehouses for grocery retail or supplying foodservice operators requires controlling thousands of SKUs under mandatory lot and expiration traceability requirements. A picking error or lot mix-up can trigger returns, disputes or product recalls.
With ICAM solutions you organize storage in an orderly and traceable way, manage FEFO — first expired, first out, meaning the product closest to its expiration date ships first — rotation automatically and maintain full visibility over every SKU, from shelf-stable products to fresh and ultra-fresh ones, including refrigerated environments.
