Today, consumers are often seen adopting new ways of buying. They prefer buy-online-pickup-in-store (BOPIS), curbside pickup and sometimes home delivery. With increasing labor costs coupled with a reduction in labor availability, supporting these operations without automation can be extremely costly and non-viable for grocery, convenience and food distribution businesses.
Creating a consumer-centric, sustainable future for food and grocery retail by working with customers to create a next generation shopping experience. Atos does this by:
- Building a resilient, adaptive, and transparent supply chain to reduce operational costs, environmental impact, and risk exposure
- Creating a consumer-centric in-store experience with data-driven insights, intelligent connected devices and empowered employees
- Transforming the in-store experience to drive loyalty and spend
Berkshire Grey’s intelligent robotic solutions enable grocery businesses to:
- Improve Efficiency – Process higher volumes of orders and reduce dependency on labor while increasing capacity and operational efficiency for store replenishment.
- Scale Operations – Address seasonal and overall business spikes with modular robotic solutions in both greenfield and brownfield environments.
- Increase Throughput – Enable buy online pickup in store (BOPIS), curbside pickup, and home delivery with intelligent robotic automation.
With Berkshire Grey, grocery, convenience and food distribution businesses can accelerate store replenishment, deliver fast and accurate online order fulfillment, and quickly install back-of-store order consolidation and order delivery management for BOPIS and curbside pickup services.
