What the KEZAD Floor Buys Noon

Gulf e-commerce fulfilment has quietly become a manufacturing problem: closed-loop robotic sortation, AI-orchestrated pick paths, and condition-based drive monitoring now define the floor at Noon's KEZAD centre and Amazon's DXB5 expansion. Whether the capex is paying back cannot be answered from press releases — the throughput-per-labour-hour and sortation-utilisation figures that would settle the question remain unpublished. Until operators release them, the ribbon-cutting is not the evidence.
