Wrigley is using AeroScout's technology and a Cisco Unified Wireless Network to track the location of pallets in real time.

AeroScout, Inc., a provider of Unified Asset Visibility solutions, recently announced that The Wrigley Company has implemented its real-time enterprise visibility solution at its largest production facility in Europe, located in Poznan, Poland.

Wrigley is a recognized leader in confections and the world's largest manufacturer and marketer of chewing gum with production facilities in 14 countries around the world. Wrigley is using AeroScout's technology and a Cisco Unified Wireless Network to track the location of pallets in real time, optimizing the efficiency of the production process by reducing losses in time and material. The installation was deployed in Poland by AeroScout in collaboration with Megabit.

"The AeroScout solution will significantly increase the productivity of our facility in Poznan and because we were able to use our existing Cisco network, the installation was very straightforward," said Jacek Mackowiak, Factory Director at Wrigley in Poznan. "The solution provides benefits, which cut production time and thus increase effectiveness. All of this equates to improved product quality management."
