Exotec wins a contract with Alliance Automotive Group

Global warehouse robotics provider Exotec has announced a significant contract win with Alliance Automotive Group (AAG) UK&I, a large car and commercial vehicle parts supplier working across European markets. The signing is the latest milestone for Exotec in its UK expansion and follows the contract win with AAG France which was announced in June 2022.

The warehouse features Exotec’s complete suite of solutions, including the Skypod and Skypicker systems, Deepsky software and 1,700 m of Skypath conveyor technology.

Each of the new solutions leverages Exotec’s modular design, which allows customers to meet their dynamic business needs by easily adding new elements to their existing systems. Exotec was chosen to help streamline processes and optimise output. Pre-production and installation of the Exotec systems will begin shortly.

Neil Warren, group logistics director for AAG in the UK, says: “I am very excited to utilise this technology in serving our customers as effectively and quickly as possible to ensure that we are a company that makes it easy for them to deal with, based on the operational flexibility it gives us”.

Rémy Malchirand, executive vice president for Western Europe at Exotec, says: “After the successful implementation of our first system with AAG in France, we are very pleased to continue our partnership with AAG in the UK and are looking forward to working together. The team has a clear vision and we’re delighted to help them realise this with our innovative systems.

Signing with AAG UK&I is another addition to Exotec’s growing international portfolio, with more than 80 customer sites in 14 different countries.
