eStore Logistics deploys autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) to work with algorithms processing live sales orders. The AMRs use accumulated business operational data to optimise tasks, including path to product, grouping of orders, 3D cubing for stock put-away (slotting) and stock replenishment. Based on predictions made on future customer orders, the AMRs also adjust the position of stock around the warehouse to minimize travel distance. Communicating to one another constantly, and working in tandem with expertly trained staff, they make the stock picking 3-4 times more efficient than manual picking. The combination of AMRs, mobile storage units and data integration is a custom design by eStore Logistics.

Crucially, the AMR technology democratises state-of-the art order fulfilment for Aussie businesses. Whether a large, complex ecommerce platform like Kogan.com, or a one-product business selling something as small as a phone cover, ecommerce operators can beat competitors on customer order fulfilment, choice and price using our turn-key solution integrated all the way back to their shopping cart. This process supports 97% of the hundreds of thousands of stock keeping units that eStore Logistics manages – no other single system in the world can claim this.
