inVia Robotics to automate 2 ShipHero fulfillment centers - The Robot Report

ShipHero, a shipping and logistics platform for more than 5,000 eCommerce brands and third-party logistics (3PL) providers, announced that it would implement inVia Robotics' robotic system at two more fulfillment centers. The company has been using inVia's automated picking and replenishment robots at its Jacksonville, Florida location, and its now adding that technology to its Allentown, Pennsylvania and Las Vegas warehouses. ShipHero and inVia have already built a native integration between inVia's warehouse execution system (WES) and ShipHero's warehouse management system (WMS) software, ensuring rapid and seamless deployments in the new facilities. "Over the last two years we've seen demand for 3PL services grow dramatically, which has led to a greater need for technology that can help keep products moving quickly through the order process," Lior Elazary, CEO and co-founder of inVia Robotics, said. "The native integration between our WES and ShipHero's WMS will allow us to very rapidly expand both of our technologies into additional warehouses, bypassing the need for time-consuming custom systems integration. We're excited to expand our AI and automation services across ShipHero's strategic distribution network."
