Book Depot plays a vital role in the book distribution ecosystem, handling a massive volume of books each year. Their operations are crucial for both wholesale markets and direct-to-consumer sales. The organization’s success depends largely on how efficiently books are sorted and processed, which directly impacts sales and the number of books that leave the warehouse.
For 20 years, Book Depot manually sorted their books, taking up to two weeks to fulfill a customer's order. Now, with the EuroSort Split Tray Sorter, they’re able to get more orders out the door within a short period of time while also sorting books at a faster rate. Not only were they able to decrease the amount of square footage they used within the warehouse with the Split Tray Sorter, but they also increased productivity by three times. Meanwhile, even though
Throughout the implementation process, Book Depot was fully supported by EuroSort. No matter how many questions or concerns arose, we made sure to prioritize their needs. With the help of the Split Tray Sorter, they now achieve an impressive 99.6% accuracy.

00:00:09:23 - 00:00:11:14 We process about 30 million
00:00:11:14 - 00:00:15:17 books a year and we sell them into the wholesale market
00:00:15:17 - 00:00:19:04 and also direct to consumer through our book outlet brand.
00:00:19:06 - 00:00:23:00 The success of our company is based on
how many books we can actually sort
00:00:23:00 - 00:00:24:08 in a given period of time.
00:00:24:08 - 00:00:27:08 For about 20 years, we've been manually processing books
00:00:27:08 - 00:00:30:12 during peak times, our manual order fulfillment
00:00:30:12 - 00:00:34:04 process could take up to two weeks to get an order out to a customer,
00:00:34:04 - 00:00:37:10 which of course, by today's standards is totally unacceptable.
00:00:37:14 - 00:00:42:02 For the inbound sortation of product the EuroSort sorter allowed us
00:00:42:02 - 00:00:43:16 to drastically increase
00:00:43:16 - 00:00:47:11 the number of books that we could process in a given period of time,
00:00:47:13 - 00:00:51:11 using less labor and a lot less floor space as well.
00:00:51:12 - 00:00:52:16 We achieved a three
00:00:52:16 - 00:00:56:18 times increase in productivity as a result of using the EuroSort order.
00:00:56:18 - 00:01:00:05 Our customer satisfaction rating is 95% and I attribute
00:01:00:05 - 00:01:03:08 a lot of that to the sorter that we use
00:01:03:08 - 00:01:07:04 as it allows us to be very consistent in our turnaround time.
00:01:07:05 - 00:01:09:02 During the installation phase
00:01:09:02 - 00:01:11:12 we felt very supported by the team members.
00:01:11:12 - 00:01:11:21 We felt that
00:01:11:21 - 00:01:15:00 we call them any time of the day and they would and asnwer our calls.
00:01:15:00 - 00:01:16:17 Before they left they would always make sure
00:01:16:17 - 00:01:19:09 that everything was running in the way that they intended.
00:01:19:09 - 00:01:22:21 Now with the sorter, we're achieving 99.96% accuracy.
00:01:23:02 - 00:01:27:19 It was the smoothest Black Friday we ever had and it was also our busiest.
00:01:27:21 - 00:01:28:15 The impact the
00:01:28:15 - 00:01:31:15 EuroSort machine has had on the staff has been excellent.
00:01:31:15 - 00:01:35:04 It ties right in with our core value of ride together, win together.
00:01:35:05 - 00:01:39:09 When we did it manually before it was working individually
00:01:39:10 - 00:01:42:10 and not really have that camaraderie that we have.
00:01:42:15 - 00:01:46:21 Having them work smarter, not harder really ties in that point
00:01:46:21 - 00:01:50:16 of celebrating those achievements and the records that we're breaking by
00:01:50:16 - 00:01:51:23 using this sorter machine.
00:01:51:23 - 00:01:54:05 EuroSort should definitely be on your short list
00:01:54:05 - 00:01:55:21 if you're considering purchasing a sorter
