OpEx / Ops Tech Meet&Greet
Starting On the 3rd & 4th March, the OpEx & Warehouse Engineers from France, Sweden and Benelux markets gathered together. This was a follow up event from the recent organizational change with Nexus gathering the OpEx and Tech teams as central teams.
During these two days we have gotten to know and how to work with each other and gave introduction on our processes from the Benelux :
Error governance : how do we manage errors and
Operational processes : Pick&Pack and Internal transport
Production planning
Tech landscape
These two days were really a great opportunity to create a bond with the different team members but also defined our new team setup and way of working.

Since the beginning of this year, we have been finding Candy Wrappers 🍬 almost every week in the production area.
Please take a moment to review the Food Safety Fact below for a quick refresher on where you can and can not enjoy your snacks.

Health & Safety statistic of February 2025
Safety Alert - Don’t walk or stand on pallets
Last month, one of our colleagues got hurt while walking on a pallet. They couldn’t come back to work the next day, which resulted in lost time. This is a reminder to everyone in the DC that walking or standing on pallets is NOT allowed. Walking or standing on a pallet can cause trips and falls, leading to serious injuries and lost time. This is unsafe and should be avoided to prevent accidents.
If you can’t reach the top of a stack, don’t stand on a pallet. Instead use a step, like the ones in the production lines, and be careful when stepping on or off. You can also help creating a safer work environment by speaking up if you see unsafe behaviour, like walking or standing on a pallet. Remind them about the risks and encourage safer ways to work.
Safety Alert - Driving in the DC
Last One of the biggest risks in the DC is the number of vehicles driving around at the same time. A collision can lead to serious or even permanent injuries. While we are all aware of this risk, accidents can still happen. Recently, there was a collision between two EPTs. One of the drivers didn’t see the other EPT and accidentally hit its levers. Thankfully, no one was hurt, but the situation could have had a much worse outcome. To prevent this, we must stay alert and avoid unsafe situations, especially when driving EPTs. Always follow traffic rules and make sure to always pay attention when driving or working near vehicles.
