…Varner also operates stores in Iceland, Denmark, Austria and Germany. All of the stores and e-commerce customers are supplied from the central logistics center in Vänersborg. Planning for the new facility began in 2013. Prior to that, each of the retail chains operated their own distribution networks independent of each another. These operated from 10 different manual warehouses in Northern Europe, all operated by 3PLs. While the supply chain had evolved over the years, it had become too complex and inefficient to address Varner’s changing needs. What’s more, Varner did not have the level of control it wanted over its…

…Minatti, head of business development, automotive, at Datwyler in Germany. “At any level, these systems require a high degree of sensor functionality, whether it be in the form of cameras, radars, lidars or lasers; how these components are secured, housed and sealed is a critical element to ensure their optimal performance. This is extremely important, as given the roles of these technologies, their reliability is directly connected to the safety of the vehicles they are embedded within, and ultimately the safety of the global road-using public,” he says. Minatti says simulation is a key design tool for AVs and can…
