In 2020, Europe&#8217;s leading furniture retailer had successfully carried out a pilot project in both the central warehouse and the furniture store in Spreitenbach, Switzerland. There are now 100 drones in use at 16 locations in Belgium, Croatia, Slovenia, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands and Switzerland.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">The drones swarm out when the employees finish work in the evening, count and scan the pallets in the high-bay warehouse, precisely measure the daily availability and send the data to the system. At the same time, they look for damaged pallets and other risks.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">All drones are equipped with 360-degree safety sensors that allow them to avoid unexpected obstacles. The drones are designed to increase both efficiency and safety in Ikea stores and warehouses.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">\u201cWe are investing in technology across the board so that our stores can better support customer fulfillment and become true centers for omnichannel retailing. Introducing drones and other advanced tools \u2013 such as, for example, robots for picking up goods \u2013 is a genuine win-win for everybody. It improves our co-workers\u2019 wellbeing, lowers operational costs, and allows us to become more affordable and convenient for our customers,\u201d says Tolga \u00d6ncu, Head of Retail at Ingka, the largest franchisee of the Ikea system.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-ae58c69 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"ae58c69\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-7d26a73\" data-id=\"7d26a73\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-cd64da6 elementor-widget elementor-widget-video\" data-id=\"cd64da6\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;video_type&quot;:&quot;vimeo&quot;,&quot;autoplay&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;,&quot;play_on_mobile&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;,&quot;mute&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;,&quot;loop&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"video.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-wrapper elementor-open-inline\">\n\t\t\t<iframe class=\"elementor-video-iframe\" allowfullscreen allow=\"autoplay\" title=\"vimeo Video Player\" src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/808213607?autoplay=1&amp;playsinline=1&amp;color&amp;autopause=0&amp;loop=1&amp;muted=1&amp;title=1&amp;portrait=1&amp;byline=1#t=\"><\/iframe>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-e93e74b elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"e93e74b\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-417b633\" data-id=\"417b633\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3d985d4 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"3d985d4\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><em>Fully autonomous drones from Swiss manufacturer Verity take the stock of Ikea stores and central warehouses outside their opening hours.
