Myrmex, Inc is an innovative startup specializing in automation and robotics, originally founded in 2015 in the United States. The firm's primary product is a pioneering unmanned click and collect delivery system utilizing mobile robotic units to rapidly fulfill online orders at pick-up points, significantly optimizing the e-commerce supply chain.
