IQ Robotics

What IQ Robotics does

IQ Robotics is a Dubai-based B2B warehouse automation and robotics provider operating primarily across the MENA region. The company sells an integrated stack that combines robotic systems (picking and sorting robots), automation and warehouse equipment (conveyors, sortation, vertical lifts, DWS systems, labelers, electric stackers, package protection), and the proprietary IQ Platform — a cloud-based suite bundling Order Management, Warehouse Management, Transportation Management, and Business Management systems. Its go-to-market is sales-led and enterprise-focused: solutions are delivered as custom end-to-end deployments that either stand up new robotic fulfillment centers or retrofit existing manual warehouses, with on-site integration, training, and after-sales support.

The business generates revenue through three streams: hardware sales of robotics and automation equipment, recurring subscriptions to the IQ Platform software, and professional services tied to warehouse transformation projects. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed. IQ Robotics is a subsidiary of IQ Holding and serves enterprise warehouse and fulfillment operators, with BFL Group (Brands For Less) disclosed as a flagship multi-million-dollar customer for robotic sorting transformation. The company is privately held with 11-50 employees and reports operational metrics including 99.9% picking accuracy, 300% efficiency uplift, 3x ROI, and 70% labor reduction among users of its solutions.
