Case Study: Scholastic Canada triples productivity and cuts labor costs with inVia Robotics

Scholastic Canada triples productivity and cuts labor cost by 70% with Invia Robotics

Scholastic Canada, a distributor of educational materials, faced significant challenges during the COVID-19 pandemic as its order profile shifted from bulk school deliveries to individual residential orders. This change, coupled with a difficult labor market and rising real estate costs, created an urgent need for a flexible automation solution to reduce reliance on manual labor and increase efficiency. They turned to Invia Robotics for a solution.

Invia Robotics implemented its AI-powered warehouse automation software and its inVia PickerWall robotic system, which uses autonomous mobile robots (AMRs). This solution allowed Scholastic Canada to triple its pick rate productivity and cut labor costs by 70%. The flexible system also eliminated the need for weekend shifts during peak season and dramatically reduced overtime expenses.
