Our next-gen robotics technology will allow retailers and grocers of all sizes to have the fastest and most affordable fulfillment,” said Simon Kalouche, Nimble’s founder and CEO. We’ve assembled an all-star team of engineers to build the future of autonomous on-demand fulfillment to solve this problem. “There is no fulfillment solution that can handle double the orders, fulfill them in half the time, with half the staff, for half the cost. With the accelerated growth of e-commerce and online fulfillment operations over the last 24 months, Nimble is positioned to take advantage of the continued investment in warehouse infrastructure and automation solutions. Today, Nimble robots are deployed in fulfillment centers across the United States picking over 100,000 items per day for customers including several Fortune 500 retailers. Nimble’s fleet of AI-powered robots intelligently pick, pack, and handle millions of products, spanning from apparel and electronics to beauty, general merchandise and grocery items. The company has positioned itself as an artificial intelligence company developing solutions for robotics. Nimble provides automated end-to-end piece-picking, sorting, and packing solutions for e-commerce order fulfillment. The company also announced the appointment of two additional seats to its board of directors: Stanford University professor, Fei-Fei Li and Sebastian Thrun, currently CEO of Kitty Hawk and founder of GoogleX and Waymo, and co-founder of Udacity. The company plans to accelerate hiring, product and technology development, and continue the scaling of robot deployments for its customer’s fulfillment operations.
