Locus Robotics
GEODIS and Locus Robotics have worked together since 2018, extending their agreement in 2022 to deploy a total of 1,000 LocusBots at GEODIS’ worldwide warehouse locations.
Warehouse automation systems provider Locus Robotics recently announced that its customer GEODIS, a global logistics provider, has surpassed 10 million units picked using Locus’s warehouse automation system at its Carlisle, Pa., distribution center.
Locus said this milestone further demonstrates the transformative impact of its person-to-goods picking automation technology - comprising autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) and AI-enabled software - on productivity, operational efficiency, and flexibility at an unprecedented scale.
“As a trusted collaborator for more than six years, GEODIS is setting new standards for speed and efficiency within its facilities,” said Rick Faulk, Locus Robotics CEO. “The Locus solution has helped GEODIS do more than just increase productivity. We’re improving workplace ergonomics and employee safety, while making it easier for workers to do their jobs with robotics automation.”
GEODIS and Locus Robotics have worked together since 2018, picking over 100 million units across all of GEODIS’ operations worldwide. The 575,000-square-foot GEODIS distribution center in Carlisle manages omnichannel consumer order fulfillment in the Midwest and Eastern United States on behalf of a major global consumer electronics company.
“With the holiday shipping season at peak levels, it is more evident than ever just how critical warehouse efficiency is to maintaining a healthy and productive supply chain,” said Kevin Stock, GEODIS in Americas executive VP of engineering. “Warehouse automation brings incredible value to helping us navigate the challenge of managing increased volumes all year long, but especially during this demanding time of year. Throughout our relationship, we’ve seen Locus Robotics’ powerful, AI-driven automation complement our teammates and dramatically increase productivity levels where deployed throughout our global operations.”
The milestone comes as part of the two companies’ expanded agreement signed in 2022 to deploy a total of 1,000 LocusBots at GEODIS’ worldwide warehouse locations.
