This not only opens a new chapter in the cooperation between Decathlon and GeekWire in Europe, but also is another important milestone for the two parties to replicate their successful experience from China to the world.
The three distribution centers to be modernized are located in Castelnau, France, Łódź, Poland, and Campania, Italy. Jizhijia provides Decathlon with high flexibility with advanced AMR robots and AI technology, enabling Decathlon to increase storage capacity, simplify logistics processes, and better serve the growing online consumers in these regions.

Consumers have higher requirements for e-commerce: high-frequency e-commerce orders and returns, high timeliness for same-day or next-day delivery, and near-perfect high accuracy have all brought new challenges to the retail industry . Decathlon has 1,045 stores in 25 European countries, and a highly flexible and fast supply chain is urgently needed to break through the logistics bottleneck, and the Jizhijia goods-to-person solution meets Decathlon's needs to optimize B2C logistics capabilities.
Zhang Jian, Vice President of GeekWire Europe, said: "When Decathlon is looking for automation partners, it attaches great importance to its global scalability to cope with the rapid growth and challenges of e-commerce business.

According to local conditions, Jizhijia has formulated a robot solution for each order distribution center of Decathlon, and adopted hundreds of Jizhijia P series picking robots. The number and configuration of robots in the Decathlon Order Distribution Center can be flexibly adjusted to easily cope with fluctuations in the order volume during peak seasons. In addition, the Jizhijia AMR system can provide flexible maintenance and adjustment for Decathlon without affecting the normal operation of Decathlon.
This cooperation is a new beginning of Decathlon and GeekWire's advanced road to smart logistics in Europe. In the future, the two parties will work together to deepen and expand cooperation in more regions, and the adoption of Jizhijia AMR robot and AI technology has become a new standard for Decathlon to provide international e-commerce services.
