    Innovation Stage

    Robots Join the Staff: Humanoid Shelf Replenishment as a Service from HIVE Robots

    Our Co-founder & CEO Charlotte Blou Sand takes the Innovation Stage at NRF 2026: Retail's Big Show Europe to show how a humanoid can join the store team, work the night shift from 21:00 to 07:00, and be paid by the hour — service all included.

    Our robots run live test sessions today in a Danish supermarket.

    Simon Kudsk, Operations Director at føtex, joins with a recorded video giving the retailer's view. On this stage HIVE Robots announces for the first time that it is opening for retail partnerships across Europe.
