Who are you?

BoxHive Logistics Hub was founded in 2023 by logistics engineers, supply-chain strategists, and robotics specialists who saw a gap in accessible automation for Canadian SMEs. While large enterprises have long leveraged automated solutions to drive efficiency, smaller businesses often face prohibitive costs, complex integration challenges, and lack of technical expertise. BoxHive bridges that gap by offering scalable, turnkey automation modules—robotic pick-and-place cells, automated storage/retrieval systems (AS/RS), and smart conveyor networks—designed specifically for businesses with 100–5,000 SKUs.

Our multidisciplinary team combines decades of experience in industrial engineering, software development, and operations management. We partner with leading robotics manufacturers, WMS providers, and 3PL operators across Canada to ensure seamless integration and ongoing support. Each client engagement begins with a comprehensive logistics audit: floor-plan analysis, throughput modeling, and labor-cost assessment. Based on audit findings, we recommend a phased deployment roadmap that aligns automation investment with growth milestones and budget constraints.

Beyond technology, BoxHive emphasizes knowledge transfer. We deliver on-site and virtual training for warehouse staff, equip managers with analytics dashboards, and provide a dedicated success manager to monitor KPIs—order cycle time, pick accuracy, labor utilization—and drive continuous improvement. Our mission is to democratize logistics automation so that Canadian businesses of all sizes can compete globally. With BoxHive, you gain more than equipment: you gain a partner committed to unlocking your operational potential, maximizing ROI, and future-proofing your supply chain.

  • Scalable Modular Automation

    BoxHive’s modular approach allows you to start small and expand as your needs grow. Instead of a massive upfront investment, you can deploy individual modules—such as a four-robot pick cell, a mini AS/RS rack, or a smart conveyor loop—and integrate them into your existing workflows. Each module comes with plug-and-play hardware, pre-configured software drivers, and guided installation instructions. As order volumes increase, simply add more robots, extend conveyor lines, or scale shelving units without disrupting operations. This pay-as-you-grow model minimizes capital risk and aligns automation costs with revenue growth, making advanced logistics technology accessible to SMEs across Canada.
  • Seamless WMS & ERP Integration

    Our platform interfaces with all major Warehouse Management Systems (Manhattan, Oracle NetSuite, HighJump) and popular ERPs (SAP Business One, Microsoft Dynamics, Odoo). Using pre-built connectors and RESTful APIs, we synchronize order data, inventory levels, and shipment statuses in real time—eliminating manual data entry and reducing errors. Bi-directional integration ensures that changes in your ERP (new orders, returns, stock adjustments) automatically trigger corresponding actions in automated cells. Detailed audit logs and exception reports provide full traceability, while configurable business rules let you customize workflows for priority orders, batch picking, or returns processing.
  • Data-Driven Performance Analytics

    BoxHive’s Analytics Dashboard aggregates operational data—robot cycle times, pick rates, order throughput, downtime events—into intuitive visualizations and KPIs. You can track daily performance, compare shifts or zones, and identify bottlenecks with drill-down reports. Machine-learning algorithms analyze historical data to predict maintenance needs and optimize resource allocation. For example, you may discover that adding a second robot to your morning shift reduces order cycle time by 20%, or that a slight conveyor speed adjustment boosts throughput during peak periods. These data-driven insights empower you to make continuous improvements and justify further automation investments.
  • Certified Partner Network

    We maintain a vetted network of installation and maintenance partners across Canada, including certified integrators, electricians, and robotics technicians. Each partner undergoes rigorous training on BoxHive modules, safety protocols, and best practices. When you engage BoxHive, we coordinate local resources for site preparation, mechanical installation, software commissioning, and operator training. Our partners also provide 24/7 field support and spare-parts inventory to minimize downtime. This distributed service network ensures prompt on-site response—often within 24 hours—no matter where your warehouse is located, from Vancouver Island to Labrador.
  • Enhanced Accuracy & Reduced Labor Costs

    By automating repetitive tasks—case picking, tote sorting, palletizing—BoxHive dramatically reduces human error and labor expenses. Our robotic pickers achieve >99.5% accuracy rates in SKU handling, compared to typical manual error rates of 1–3%. Automated conveyors and sortation modules handle up to 1,200 units per hour, freeing staff to focus on exception management and value-added tasks. Companies implementing BoxHive report labor-cost reductions of 30–50% and a 40% decrease in order fulfillment lead times. This efficiency gain translates into higher customer satisfaction, fewer returns, and stronger margins.
  • Future-Ready & Upgradeable

    BoxHive systems are built on open-architecture software and industry-standard communication protocols (OPC-UA, MQTT). This ensures compatibility with emerging technologies—AI-driven vision systems, autonomous mobile robots (AMRs), and IoT sensor networks. Your investment remains future-proof: firmware updates, new algorithm modules, and additional hardware integrations can be deployed remotely via secure over-the-air updates. As your business evolves—adding SKUs, entering new markets, or shifting to omnichannel fulfillment—BoxHive adapts without requiring a complete system overhaul.
Our solutions
Logistics Audit & Automation Roadmap
Our process begins with a detailed on-site audit of your warehouse operations. We map material flows, observe manual tasks, record throughput metrics, and interview stakeholders. Using discrete-event simulation models, we project the impact of various automation scenarios on key KPIs. The deliverable is a bespoke Automation Roadmap: phased recommendations, cost estimates, ROI projections, and implementation timelines aligned to your business objectives. This roadmap de-risks your investment by highlighting quick wins and long-term strategies.
Turnkey Installation & Commissioning
BoxHive manages end-to-end deployment of your automation modules. Our certified technicians handle site preparation—floor layout, power, network infrastructure—followed by mechanical assembly, software configuration, and safety validations. We conduct Factory Acceptance Tests (FAT) in our facility and Site Acceptance Tests (SAT) on-site to ensure performance meets specifications. After go-live, we provide hypercare support during the stabilization period, including daily performance checks and fine-tuning.
Operator Training & Certification
We deliver comprehensive training programs for your warehouse staff and maintenance teams. Through a blend of classroom sessions, hands-on workshops, and e-learning modules, participants learn system operation, basic troubleshooting, safety procedures, and routine maintenance tasks. Successful trainees receive BoxHive Operator or Technician certification, ensuring consistent, safe, and efficient use of the automated equipment.
Maintenance & Support Plans
Choose from tiered support plans—Basic, Premium, and Enterprise—that include scheduled preventive maintenance, remote diagnostics, and on-site repairs. Our predictive-maintenance service uses sensor data to forecast component wear and schedule service before failures occur. Emergency support is available 24/7 via phone or web ticket, with guaranteed response times as fast as 4 hours for critical issues.
Software Customization & Integration
Beyond standard connectors, our software engineers can develop custom integrations with niche ERP, TMS, or MES platforms. We also build tailored user interfaces—dashboard widgets, alert rules, and reporting templates—to match your operational workflows. All custom code is version-controlled and tested in sandbox environments before production deployment, ensuring robust, maintainable solutions.
Expansion & Upgrade Consulting
As your business scales, BoxHive’s consulting team evaluates system performance and identifies opportunities for expansion—adding new robot cells, extending conveyor lines, or upgrading control software. We update your Automation Roadmap accordingly, factor in evolving business needs, and manage capital-planning cycles. Our goal is to ensure your logistics infrastructure grows in step with your enterprise, maximizing both efficiency and return on investment.
