Last year, Walmart grew the volume of its online orders from its retail outlets by 170%. As a result, the retailer has been remodelling and supporting its digital supply chain and adding more compacted tech fulfilment centres in its retail stores. According to its online post, Walmart will tap machine learning to speed up digital orders through a newly-built automated platform. With its latest warehouse-like fulfilment centres in stores, the grocer can track consumer demand, manage a transparent inventory, and replenish it in a shorter term. These compressed market fulfilment centres can store numerous grocery items with fresh produce. The firm will have tech robots fulfilling the orders and will also pilot autonomous delivery via Gatik’s drones and robots.
