AT A GLANCE (B) — (Note #8 on “Ingles Upgrades”)

Scoop Bin Markings to assess needs

Rouse Scoop Bin markings make it easier to determine product inventory and needs.


Dear Ingles Markets,

The cover of this note shows a second example of a marking system I created to make it easier and faster to assess bulk product needs.

(1) Each Scoop Bin Dispenser has a horizontal strip of black tape on the left side. The placement varies by product. When the product level drops below that line, then there is room to accept a new case of products.

(2) Each Scoop Bin Dispenser has a white vertical strip on its left side. Numbered arrows mark how many 16-ounce cups of products are needed to reach that level.

It only takes a glance to determine the actual inventory and to learn if there is room to hold another case of products when ordered.

All Bulk Product sections can benefit from implementing something similar to my system.
