Geekplus will enable THG Fulfil to increase warehouse performance by supporting palletised items of any size. The Geekpus solution joins THG Fulfil’s already extensive warehouse automation solutions, which it leverages to serve the growing trend for late-night shopping by offering a 1 a.m. Next Day Delivery cut-off service for its brands including ESPA and LOOKFANTASTIC, alongside third-party clients.

The expansion of automation solutions now enables THG Fulfil to support category-agnostic items of any size through its automation solutions, pushing 95% of all units sold through a form of automation.
“The versatility of our suite of mobile robot solutions, adapted to all kinds of scenarios and industries – in this case, pallet movement – makes it possible for our customers to meet their business objectives,” said Simon Houghton, Geekplus’ director of Sales, UKI-EMEA. “It is fantastic that THG Fulfil has been able to enhance its warehouse automation capabilities and order fulfilment with the implementation of our innovative robotics solutions.”
