February 12, 2013 – Gordon Food Services Tour

GFS Tour Feb 12, 2013
On Tuesday February 12th, 2013 CMHDS members toured the Gordon Food Service Distribution Centre.

GladiatorLocated on Annacis Island in Delta, BC the 350,000 sq.ft. facility employs over 850 people and has a storage capacity of 40,000 pallets. One of the main focal points for the tour will be how GFS has increased the accuracy of their scan/pick selection process though the implementation of a mobile bar code technology called Gladiators (pictured left).
