ShipHero, a U.S.-based tech-driven logistics company specializing in e-commerce fulfillment, has launched a new robotics initiative to automate its warehouse operations. The company recently partnered with Locus Robotics to deploy autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) across its key fulfillment centers. These robots are designed to improve picking accuracy, reduce labor costs, and increase throughput, ultimately enhancing the efficiency of order fulfillment processes.
The introduction of robotics aligns with ShipHero’s strategy to scale its operations and provide faster, more reliable shipping options for online retailers. By leveraging advanced technology, ShipHero aims to offer a competitive edge in the rapidly growing e-commerce market, catering to small and mid-sized businesses looking for agile and scalable logistics solutions. The new system is expected to reduce delivery times and enhance customer satisfaction, positioning ShipHero as a leader in tech-enabled logistics.
