Robots-as-a-service deal signed

Logistics provider Winit will roll out the solution for its fulfillment centre in Cincinnati, Ohio. The Winit Cincinnati Fulfillment centre will be expanding 6,200 sq m of robotics warehouse space to 11,000 sq m. The company sees great opportunities in the Geek+ Robot-as-a-Service (RaaS) Model, which provides affordable and tailored solutions that help companies flexibly and quickly scale their operations to meet fluctuations in demand.

With an inventory subject to a wide variety of products, massive SKUs, and a rapid increase in online sales, Winit has been looking for solutions that can streamline its warehouse operations, mitigate against management issues due to high turnover of warehouse workers, and enable flexible yet affordable scaling of operations.

Winit will deploy Goods-to-Person P-series robots.

Xiaoliang Luo, VP of operations at Winit said: “With an automated warehouse, we will ensure a smooth operation by reducing the CoVID-19 impact for our fulfillment centre.”
