Who we are

Built on a warehouse floor.

Chukwu is three modules and smart shelves for wholesale warehouses and showrooms. It started with one person picking orders from handwritten slips in Montréal.

The founder

Obinna Chukwu

Builder. Computer engineer.

A couple summers ago I was picking orders on Rue Chabanel. Every morning: a stack of handwritten slips, wrong sizes pulled, wrong quantities shipped, workers backtracking across the floor. Then I moved into showroom coordination. Different problem, same root cause. Checking a style number meant opening multiple spreadsheets and databases one by one, cross-referencing manually. Slow, nobody had time for it.

I built two fixes. A digital picking system for the warehouse floor lets workers detect style numbers directly from tags with any phone. Inventory updates in real time and errors drop to zero. No barcodes or special hardware. The showroom tool uses the same direct style detection to search every database at once.

That became Chukwu. B.Eng. Computer Engineering. A.Sc. Computer Science.
