Ever wonder how you can buy a new kitchen utensil online as late as 10:59 p.m. and have it in your hand, ready to cook dinner the next day?   So did a reporter from Marketplace by APM, the nightly NPR business segment with a weekly audience of 5.3 million listeners.   At UPS’ Velocity warehouse near Louisville, Kentucky, 700+ Geek+ robots fill e-com orders and adjust inventory in real time, according to the popularity of items. The speed of Geekplus Shelf-to-Person smart robot technology paired with UPS' logistical expertise gets items from the warehouse to your doorstep in less than 24 hours.   Thomas Stearman, Velocity’s director of industrial engineering, calls it a dance.   We second your idea to put a disco ball in the warehouse.🪩🕺   #ecom #shelftoperson #inthenews #3PL #poppick UPS Supply Chain Solutions Listen to the full story here: https://lnkd.in/gYGguncH

This is fascinating! Amazed by how UPS is using robots to speed up their operations. It’s incredible to think about how quickly things move from order to delivery.
