About the customer
Carl Hassing is a wholesale company specializing in tools, which since 1913 has been responsible for the supply of products for production, repair and maintenance in the iron and machine industry.
The company basically lives off its large warehouse, where they stock over 60,000 item numbers. Carl Hassing can be found in two stores in Odense and in Svendborg, as well as in the relatively new webshop that went live in 2018.
The huge number of item numbers and the promise of day-to-day delivery of stock items means that a large and efficient warehouse is strictly necessary. Carl Hassing and BITO have collaborated since 2004.
