Enhancing Productivity and Efficiency through Collaborative Solutions at Aramex

When global logistics firm Aramex acquired US shop and ship company MyUS, they turned to AJ Products to help re-purpose existing warehouse space into a dedicated area for handling the UK-based service, MyUK. With requirement for shelving, workbenches and picking trolleys, they needed efficient solutions to optimise both productivity and ergonomics.

The Challenge 

Last autumn, Aramex acquired MyUS, a shop and ship company based in Florida, USA. As part of the acquisition, Aramex gained the MyUK service, which required meticulous inspection of items shipped into the UK to comply with customs regulations. Aramex identified the need for efficient shelving solutions to store and consolidate items during this inspection process and when handling orders from multiple manufacturers.
