Phantom Auto, a pioneer in technology for remote operation of forklifts and yard trucks, has received a major investment that will go towards helping its customers solve the warehouse and logistics worker labor shortage.

Phantom is already working with ConGlobal to provide its customers with unmanned yard trucks, and are currently moving live loads, including with one of the largest railroads in the world.

That ability makes a large labor pool available because individuals who need the work but don't care to move, don't have to. They can operate the equipment remotely, as long as they have access to a strong internet connection. He went on to point out fewer than than 10% of ConGlobal's frontline operators are female and none of its equipment operators are people with physical disabilities so Phantom’s technology “allows us to expand our reach into a broader, more diverse pool of employees that we don’t have access to today.”
