eCommerce Fulfillment

The explosive growth of eCommerce in grocery retailing, through click and collect and home delivery, requires a step-change in fulfillment efficiency. This step-change requires utilizing the retail store as a hyper-local fulfillment center and delivery hub. This involves a combination of technology-assisted manual picking and smart integration of automated goods-to-person robotic systems. This change, when executed properly unlocks significant capacity, removes bottlenecks and reduces overall costs.
