He wants to launch the first robotic solution in the distribution center of his German branch Knuspr.de in Munich. The company informed about it in the press release.

This is complemented by an efficient picking workplace, “describes the Rohlik Group, adding that in the first phase it will pour 45 million euros into automation and in the years 2022 – 2025 a total of up to 400 million euros.
Robotization is to expand the capacity of the Munich distribution center by 30%. “The Munich distribution center is divided into several temperature zones: dry, chilled and frozen. In the first phase, the automation at Knuspr.de covers a dry zone with up to 10,000 products. It will cover 60% of this range, “adds the company.
The company wants in the Czech Republic to build a fully automated warehouse in Chřášťany near Prague, finished in the fall of next year.
