Enhancing Efficiency: Nisbets Partners with Geekplus Robotics

Nisbets, a leading omnichannel distributor of catering equipment and supplies in the UK and Ireland, has taken a significant step in improving its warehouse operations by partnering with Geekplus Robotics. This collaboration not only enhances Nisbets' efficiency in Avonmouth but also solidifies its position as a trusted supplier in the catering sector.

With over 12,500 products stored at its Avonmouth facility, Nisbets' recent integration of Geekplus' autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) marks a new era of operational efficiency and safety in the industry. The implementation of these advanced robotic solutions boosts the company's operational flexibility and ensures accurate order fulfillment, thus promoting timely deliveries and improved availability for both B2B and B2C customers.

Seamless Integration and Operational Flexibility

The state-of-the-art fleet from Geekplus comprises 190 AMRs, including models such as the RS8, P40, and P800. This technology allows Nisbets to handle large volumes of order picking with ease. The warehouse, equipped with over 33,540 carton storage locations and 600 pallet shelves, combined with designated picking stations, provides the much-needed scalability and adaptability to meet market demands and evolving customer needs.

The project was executed with the expertise of AMH Material Handling, a partner known for its proficiency in warehouse integration. Their contribution ensured a seamless connection between various systems, from goods receipt to dispatch, maximizing efficiency and reliability across Nisbets’ entire operation.
