Geek+ and CASETiFY win the Gold Award for the Reindustrialization Theme of the HKIE MIS Industry Award 2022.
Lit Fung, VP and Managing Director of Geek+, said: “We are honored to win this award for the cutting-edge solution we developed with CASETiFY. We understand the pain point of high uncertainty in customized production and developed this smart factory solution to help CASETiFY improve their digital capabilities, increase efficiency, and achieve real flexible manufacturing.”
As a global tech accessory brand producing cases for a wide range of smartphones, tablets, and laptops, CASETiFY sought to upgrade its production line and warehouse to fulfill the ever-faster demand for customized products. Geek+ designed a smart factory and warehousing system using its tote-to-person RoboShuttle to reduce management costs and enable multiple-line customized production.
Geek+ and CASETiFY team up to build a smart factory and automated warehouse in Hong Kong, realizing Industry 4.0 with AMR robots.
Ocean To, Operations Director at CASETiFY, said: “Working on reindustrialization in Hong Kong is not easy; it requires clever, modern solutions.

Thanks to all co-workers and teammates who devoted their effort and time to the project.”
