The partnership kicks off with the integration of Pickle Unload systems at Yusen’s Contract Logistics Group transloading operation in Long Beach, Calif. The companies explained this marks the beginning of a strategic
alliance, with Yusen deploying Pickle Unload Systems under robotics as a service (RaaS) terms.
“We’re thrilled about this partnership with Pickle Robot Company,” said John Rae, vice president of operations for Yusen’s Contract Logistics Group. “It aligns with our commitment to innovation, improving our employees’ work environment, and delivering exceptional service to our customers. The pilot program is ideal, considering the substantial 200,000+ ocean freight containers we transload annually. That level of volume demands automation solutions to help us reduce the amount of physically demanding, labor-intensive tasks for our team members. The Pickle Robot Unload System is a game-changer that will revolutionize our operations.”
