Robotic Palletizers Preserve Tradition and Taste
Client name: Bob's Red Mill
Process type: Packing & Palletizing
Established in 1978 by Bob and Charlee Moore, the goal was to provide a product with the nutrients that many competitors leave out. Utilizing traditional quartz millstones to grind whole grains at a slow speed and cool temperature, not only preserves the nutrients but also preserves the fresh taste. Through the integration of this historic technology and modern packaging solutions, Bob’s Red Mill has taken a stance that says “quality and quantity”.
Rather than the corporate approach to expansion, Bob’s Red Mill has always catered toward local and smaller markets, while still maintaining relationships with larger distributors like Fred Meyer (Kroger). This sentiment culminated in 2008 when they relocated from their 130,000 sq. ft. facility to their current 325,000 sq. ft. facility.
