Stories of pharmacy automation
Extra revenue for Lielahti pharmacy
"Unpacking the deliveries used to take until three or four in the afternoon on Tuesdays. Now, the work is done by noon, or two o’clock at the latest. Our employees can serve customers instead; for example, our cosmetologists have time to see more customers now."
A powerful solution to a small and challenging space
"I wanted to maximise the space available for customer service, so we had to store the prescription drugs as compactly as possible. The delivery reception area is used efficiently now, and we can move the wholesale medicine crates conveniently to Iso-Fixu from the door."
“IF ANYTHING, OUR CONFIDENCE IN NEWICON HAS GROWN EVEN STRONGER”
"Iso-Fixu has reduced the strain on our staff and made their work faster. It has completely eliminated the monotonous task of stocking our storeroom shelves. Our employees have 30% more time to talk to customers now."
