Summary
CALGARY, Alberta & VANCOUVER, British Columbia--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Attabotics, the 3D robotics supply chain company, and FoodX Technologies, one of the leading end-to-end eGrocery Management Solutions (eGMS) for profitable online grocery fulfillment, today announced a North American joint market offering. The company transforms the rows and aisles of a typical warehouse into a single, vertical storage structure that’s modular and scalable, and uses “3D” robots internally to store and retrieve items for box packers on the outside perimeter. FoodX Technologies, which has partnered with Carrefour Group and recently announced its entry into the U.S. market, provides a tailored, end-to-end solution for fresh food that vastly improves online grocery margins, and increases the productivity of retailers’ e-commerce operations. “Azure, combined with our partner ecosystem, unlocks new solutions for the challenges that supply chain systems face today.” Since COVID-19 was declared a pandemic in March, the grocery e-commerce market has witnessed explosive growth and is projected to continue on an upward path. Inspired by the framework of ant colonies, Attabotics replaces the rows and aisles of traditional fulfillment centers with a patented storage structure and robotics shuttles that utilize both horizontal and vertical space, reducing a company’s warehouse needs by 85%.
