About Locus Robotics

Locus Robotics' revolutionary, multi-bot solution incorporates powerful and

intelligent autonomous mobile robots that operate collaboratively with human

workers to dramatically improve piece‐handling productivity 2–3x, with

less labor compared to traditional piece-handling systems. Locus helps

retailers, 3PLs and specialty warehouses efficiently meet and exceed the

increasingly complex and demanding requirements of fulfillment environments.

Easily integrating into existing warehouse infrastructures without disrupting

workflows, Locus transforms productivity without transforming the warehouse.

Locus's European presence is centrally located in Amsterdam and we are

expanding into the APAC region as well. In 2022, Locus Robotics was named to

the Inc. 500 for the second year in a row, and winning over 13 industry awards

including a 2022 IFOY Award for its Autonomous Mobile Robot Solution in the

Automated Guided Vehicle (AGV/AMR) category. For more information, visit
