Description:
2023 RBR50 LogoIn September 2022, autonomous mobile robot (AMR) developer Locus Robotics surpassed 1 billion picks for its warehouse fulfillment customers. The milestone pick was made at a home improvement retailer warehouse in Florida, where a LocusBot picked a cordless rotary tool kit. Locus completed its billionth pick just 59 days after hitting its 900 millionth pick. To put this into perspective, it took Locus 1,542 days to pick its first 100 million picks.

Analysis:
Retailers and fulfillment warehouse operators are increasingly turning to AMRs to meet growing demand and mitigate labor shortages. Cost-efficient robots are a must-have as e-commerce volumes continue to increase. LocusBots are deployed at more than 200 sites worldwide, with some sites using as many as 500 LocusBots. The billionth pick and Locus’ increasing pick rate are a testament to the company’s robotics innovation and vision. It also further solidifies Locus’ world-class reputation as a leading AMR provider that continues to create critical business value for its customers around the world, every day. – Brianna Wessling
