Gartner says half of new warehouses in advanced economies by 2030 to be robot-centric

Half of new warehouses built in advanced economies by 2030 will be designed as robot-centric facilities, Gartner projects. The firm describes the shift as a structural transition driven by rising labour costs, workforce shortages and avoidance of repetitive tasks. AI is expected to optimise warehouse environments in real time and reshape layouts for fleets of robots. Human work is seen shifting toward handling exceptions. Digital twins will expand into real-time operations management, while data accuracy and connectivity become critical.
