    They are picking the items from their stock bins.

    Would be my guess.

    AFAIK it’s the same word in the US of A. I don’t recall meeting the term until I worked in a warehouse.

    For more information than you could possibly want on the subject:

    All the best,

    I reckon it’s a typo for ‘In Packing”!

    or in poking, they underfilled the order so are using a razor blade to open the packaging and poke a few more in.
    Or in pecking – your order is feeding the chooks
    Or in Pekin – got your address wrong in 4D

    Or porking. But we won’t go there…

    I worked in a warehouse for a few weeks once. I was a ‘picker’.

    Basically it means just what it says. You pick the items listed on the order and parcel them up ready for despatch!
