Conversion in Bad Hersfeld
Amazon upgrades logistics center with robots
The online retailer Amazon plans to invest a three-digit million sum in its logistics center in Bad Hersfeld, Germany. The US company announced that this is intended to future-proof the site.
According to the information provided, transport robots are to be integrated into operations and make the work of the workforce easier. As walking distances are eliminated, processes will become more efficient.
Positive experience with robots
Such transport robots are already being used at other locations and the experience has been positive. "We want to be ready for the conversion by late summer 2025," said a spokesperson. "Our experience at existing sites with transport robots is that more highly qualified technicians are needed." Amazon itself provides training in technical professions at many of these locations.
Amazon operates the two logistics centers FRA1 and FRA3 in Bad Hersfeld. In Hesse, there are also two sorting centers in Gernsheim and Wolfhagen/Breuna as well as four distribution centers in Raunheim, Knüllwald, Friedrichsdorf and Weiterstadt and an Amazon Web Services location in Frankfurt.
Eleven million items in storage
Amazon says it is already in the middle of the Christmas shopping season and has around eleven million items in storage at FRA3. At peak times, a mid-five-figure number of parcels leave the site every day.
