Amazon will continue expanding the use of automation technologies across its operations in India and deploy advanced systems for inventory management at its fulfilment centres, according to a senior company executive.
Tye Brady, Chief Technologist at Amazon Robotics, stated the company already utilises several automation solutions across its Indian fulfilment network and remains committed to further investments in the market.
Brady noted that Amazon has invested US $40 billion in India and has announced plans to invest an additional US $35 billion by 2030.
The planned investment will be directed towards business expansion and three key strategic pillars – AI-driven digitisation, export growth, and job creation.
According to Amazon, its investments in India to date have helped digitise over 12 million small businesses and enabled more than US $20 billion in cumulative exports from the country.
“There are robotic systems at Amazon fulfilment centres, such as the SLAM labeler, along with systems used for inventory control and inventory management. These are technologies that we will continue to invest in,” Brady added.
The SLAM (Scan, Label, Apply, Manifest) labeler is an automated system designed to streamline outbound operations in large fulfilment centres. It scans parcels, verifies package data, prints and applies shipping labels in real time, and transmits shipment information to carriers before packages are dispatched. The technology helps improve operational efficiency, accuracy, and processing speed.
