Case Study
Metcash Modernises Distribution with Dematic Automation at Truganina
This case study describes how Metcash modernised its Victorian supply chain by consolidating fragmented operations into a single, future-ready distribution centre in Truganina. Partnering with Dematic, Metcash deployed a goods-to-person automation solution powered by Multishuttle technology to improve efficiency and reduce operating costs. The move replaced a multi-shed setup in Laverton with a centralized, scalable facility designed to support long-term growth. The automated system streamlined order fulfillment, increased productivity, and created a flexible foundation capable of adapting to changing demand while strengthening the reliability and performance of Metcash’s grocery distribution network.
