UMH recently completed a large-scale storage system installation for a global logistics organization operating a 1,000,000 sq. ft. distribution facility. The end-user – one of the world’s leading e-commerce companies – required a high-density racking solution that could support rapid throughput, strict safety standards, and evolving operational demands.
The project involved designing, engineering, and installing a system tailored to the customer’s workflow, with an emphasis on durability, accuracy, and long-term performance.
Total Pallet Positions: 150,000+
Case Pick Positions: 20,000+
The customer is a worldwide logistics provider responsible for managing high-volume fulfillment and distribution for major retailers. Their network handles complex inbound and outbound operations, demanding storage systems that can scale with demand, maintain product integrity, and maximize space utilization.
UMH partnered with the customer to deliver a fully integrated racking solution across the facility’s 1,000,000 sq. ft. footprint. The scope included:
Engineering a layout optimized for space, travel paths, and pick efficiency
Supplying high-density pallet racking designed for high-velocity operations
Coordinating installation crews and project scheduling
Ensuring full compliance with safety, permitting, and load-bearing requirements
Completing in-field adjustments to match operational workflows and onsite needs
A project of this size requires precise coordination across teams. UMH provided dedicated project management to keep all phases aligned, from design through installation.
The end-user needed a system that could support significant product movement. We engineered a solution that balances density with accessibility, ensuring fast, reliable pallet flow.
To support long-term scalability, the system was designed with modularity in mind—allowing the customer to expand or reconfigure as demand shifts.
The final installation delivered a high-performance storage environment that maximizes space, improves operational speed, and meets strict safety standards.
The system is now supporting one of the busiest e-commerce distribution networks in the world.
