Walmart began working with Alert Innovation in 2016 to build custom technology for its micro-fulfillment centers.

Alpen, a leading Japanese sports retailer, said it hopes for a 60% reduction in logistics operations among the benefits of the nation’s first “3D robot warehouses.”

With demands for hygiene and workforce efficiency at an all-time high, grocery stores are turning to robots like these to better track inventory and serve customers.

Murata Machinery has partnered with Alert Innovation to bring the latter company’s automation technology to new materials handling applications beyond retail.
