It’s about being efficient with both space and movement. Robotics, combined with Artificial Intelligence, allows us to have a broader array of products in our fulfilment centres and to move those products to FC associates and customers most efficiently. Robotics allows us to increase storage capacity and have a broad selection of products as close to customers as possible. Machine Learning is used to define where those products are and how they should most efficiently move from point A to point B. Thanks to this technology, what used to take hours can now be achieved in mere minutes.

We have more than 100,000 Amazon robotic units worldwide that work alongside hundreds of thousands of employees in our fulfilment centres. We utilize these high-end technologies within our fulfilment centres to speed up order processing times and increase storage capacity.

We are able to process orders faster and get customer packages on lorries faster for delivery to our customers.
