Exotec presents one million containers daily across the globe

Global warehouse automated storage and retrieval (AS/RS) provider Exotec recently announced its fleet of Skypod robots has achieved an operational milestone of completing over one million container presentations on a daily basis globally.

Exotec said this achievement underscores its commitment to delivering reliable, high-performance systems that can help improve supply chain operations worldwide.

Each presentation represents a robot retrieving a container and delivering it to a designated workstation. Each container can fulfill up to four orders, which Exotec said can reduce the time and effort it takes for warehouse workers to keep up with customer demand.

"Achieving one million presentations daily is a huge milestone because it represents the level of trust that our customers place in us to support and drive their supply chain operations day-to-day,” said Romain Moulin, Exotec CEO and co-founder. “This achievement showcases the reliability of our systems as we continue to scale our install base around the world.”

Skypod deployments expanding into new global markets

The average worker in a manual warehouse is estimated to walk an average of 10 miles a day. With Exotec’s goods-to-person system, warehouse workers can save thousands of steps per day by cutting out the need to pick items for fulfillment manually.

Exotec said it has experienced explosive growth since its founding, reaching 100 million container presentations within five years. At the rate it is presenting containers today, it would take the company only three months to achieve the same milestone.

Recent examples of Exotec’s momentum include:

• Worldwide Expansion: To accommodate its growing global footprint, Exotec said it has significantly expanded its global presence. The company moved into larger office spaces in Atlanta, Ga. and Munich, Germany, while also expanding into new markets including Austria and South Korea.
• Team Growth: The company has expanded to a workforce of 1,300 employees, fostering innovation and excellence across its operations. Exotec projects an additional 25% headcount growth in 2025 to meet increasing demand
• Customer Sites: Exotec has also grown its install base, reaching more than 135 customer sites worldwide with new deployments across North America, Europe, and Asia.
