Autonomous mobile robot (AMR) developer Geek+ has announced a strategic partnership with Körber Supply Chain to expand its presence in the South American market.
Randy Randolph, Geek+ America’s VP of channels and partnerships, said: “We are thrilled to take the next step in our partnership with Körber Supply Chain to strengthen our growing presence in South America.
“This deepened partnership allows us to continue to support customers across the continent with flexible robotic solutions that can help them maximise warehouse throughput and meet increased consumer expectations. ”
With offices in Brazil, Chile and Mexico, Körber Supply Chain supports organisations across Latin America with their supply chains and customer service.
Together, Geek+ and Körber Supply Chain have implemented warehouse solutions in various industries across retail, apparel, e-commerce, as well as third-party operations for global customers.
The two companies hope to share knowledge on robotics and warehouse management to provide clients in Brazil and South America with automated solutions for their supply chains.
Geek+ goods-to-person robots will soon be in operation at Körber Supply Chain’s innovation centre in Campinas, Brazil.
The Chinese robotics firm plans on continued collaboration with Körber Supply Chain to help its clients manage labour shortages, while also improving warehouse productivity and storage capabilities through use of AMRs.
