Dematic expands Micro-Fulfillment solution

Dematic has expanded its Micro-Fulfillment solution for general merchandise and apparel industries to help retailers address rising consumer demand for rapid eCommerce order fulfillment and delivery.

Dematic Micro-Fulfillment can be installed in as little as 12 weeks and in locations as small as 10,000 sq ft. This compact design makes it possible to install in the back of existing retail locations, directly supporting online orders for consumers within a specific radius. Such close proximity enables companies to make better use of space at existing storefronts, streamline eCommerce order fulfillment and last-mile delivery, while providing a better end-consumer experience online and in-store.

Software developed for the Dematic Micro-Fulfillment solution drives intelligent operation and tightly integrates with enterprise systems, so retailers retain control of their data.

This announcement quickly follows the commercial availability of Dematic’s Micro-Fulfillment solution and the company’s first public installation announcement with US grocer Meijer. Meijer’s system is scheduled to be operational soon and Dematic expects to share additional customer installation momentum in the coming months.

“The retail market is ripe for automation disruption, demonstrated by the immediate interest we’ve received from leading retail brands wanting to know more about micro-fulfillment,” said Dematic president and CEO Hasan Dandashly. “We began this by helping our grocery customers power the future of commerce with micro-fulfillment — general merchandise and apparel represent a natural next step.

“We believe the Dematic Micro-Fulfillment solution will soon set the standard for modern order fulfillment, and our proven automation technology and global scale uniquely positions us to advance fulfillment strategies for retail brands worldwide.”
