A central conveyor is provided for receiving specific products from the bins according to orders. A plurality of intermediate containers are positioned above and along the central conveyor for temporarily holding products from the bins. Each container includes a dispenser operable to discharge products onto the conveyor. An indicator is associated with each bin and includes a light, a number display, and a container display.
