EXIT - Acquisition (Ocado: OCDO)

Identifying and sorting warehoused merchandise for final delivery is one of the slowest, costliest parts of fulfillment center operations. Kindred’s robots use AI to pick, place, and sort items such as apparel, groceries, and packages, helping to solve workforce gaps and elevate human workers. The UK-based Ocado Group acquired Kindred in 2020.
