$AMZN Amazon develops new highly automated Tetromino warehouses, Business Insider says
Amazon is creating a new generation of automated warehouses that use AI and robotics to process packages at the final stop before delivery, Eugene Kim of Business Insider reported, citing an internal planning document. Project Tetromino is intended to build fully automated delivery stations, which are the final facility in the shipping process receiving packaged items from fulfillment centers before sorting and staging them for drivers to deliver to customers. Amazon planned to invest
$103M in an initial Tetromino pilot in 2028, followed by five sites in 2029 and 10 more in 2030, according to the document. The total Tetromino investment could end up at more than
$530M by 2029 and could reportedly process packages at roughly 2.5 times the rate of its existing delivery station design.
