Nadro Continues to Expand Its Use of Vuzix Smart Glasses to Support Cost-Savings Related to Warehouse Operations
ROCHESTER, N.Y. , May 5, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Vuzix® Corporation (NASDAQ:VUZI), ("Vuzix" or, the "Company"), a leading supplier of AI-powered smart glasses, waveguides and Augmented Reality (AR) technologies, today announced that Nadro S.A. de C.V. ("Nadro"), Mexico's premier pharmaceutical wholesale distributor, now has over 500 Vuzix M400™ smart glasses in use following multiple follow-on orders placed over the past year through its local distributor and system integrator Acuraflow. TeamViewer, a global leader in remote connectivity and workplace digitalization solutions, continues to supply its Frontline vision picking solution for these glasses, enabling Nadro to manage its high volume of goods using digitalized cloud-based warehousing and picking processes across its 14 distribution centers.
With a fleet of 1,250 vehicles, Nadro distributes 50+ million medical and personal care products every month to pharmacies across Mexico, as well as provides training and specialized services to pharmacies to help manage their operations and inventories. As previously reported, Nadro has been able to improve its picking time by 30% using Vuzix smart glasses while significantly decreasing training time for its employees. The time for onboarding and training was reduced by 93%, accelerating the time usually needed for employees to work more autonomously. With improved picking and reduced onboarding and training times, Nardo has been able to eliminate overtime and improve its employees' work-life balance despite increasing orders.
"By integrating TeamViewer's Frontline software with Vuzix smart glasses, we've empowered our warehouse teams with real-time, hands-free support that is driving measurable efficiencies across our operations," said Ricardo López Soriano, Chief Innovation Officer at Nadro. "Faster training, fewer errors, and quicker order fulfillment are helping us build a more agile, resilient supply chain, which are critical advantages as we scale to meet growing customer demand."
"We are proud to support Nadro's success as they realize significant operational gains with Vuzix smart glasses," said Paul Travers, President and CEO of Vuzix. "As industries worldwide accelerate their digital transformation, our solutions, especially when combined with platforms like TeamViewer's Frontline, are increasingly viewed as essential tools for modernizing logistics and supply chains. Warehouse operations are just one of several high-growth verticals we are targeting, and we believe Vuzix is well positioned to capture a substantial share of this expanding, multi-billion-dollar market opportunity."
