Rouse Back-Up Drawers dramatically improve organization, ease of access, and management of Bulk Products.
Dear Ingles Markets,
The “Rouse Back Up Drawers” (BUDs) on the cover comprise one of my innovations designed to enhance the prosperity of Ingles Markets by helping save tens of thousands of work hours per year.
Rouse “BUDs” currently organize, hold, and protect 79 of our 90 different bulk products at Ingles #53 in Clemson. Rouse BUDs are easily pulled out to count, add, or remove cups according to the “sell by” date. This reduces the time needed to locate, sort, and distribute products.
End labels on BUDs help. They identify Product Name, Location, PLU, Order #, and Reorder Criteria. This makes it easier and faster to properly label/price products at the scales, transport products to their display/storage locations, and reorder on time.
As valuable as BUDs are, however, they are not alone. We use more innovative tools and techniques.
