Asian-American grocer H Mart has partnered with AutoStore to introduce an automated micro-fulfillment center in Carlstadt, New Jersey to support its online grocery operations. The MFC will increase fulfillment efficiency for a broad range of grocery packaged goods, as well as fresh and frozen items.
“Hmart.com has proven to be an important offering to our customers. Hmart.com enables our customers to experience the food that lets them feel at home, just as when they shop in-store. We’ve partnered with the best automated technology in the field to fulfill our orders quickly and efficiently. We’re excited to work with Bastian Solutions and AutoStore to deliver the highest quality Asian products to our customers,” said Vince Colatriano, executive vice president of H Mart, in a statement.
The increased efficiency may translate into better financial results as well, according to AutoStore.
“H Mart’s investment in e-grocery automation will not only help the bottom line of their online business but will also benefit their customer base as a whole. We’re excited to provide H Mart a solution that gives them greater operational efficiency and order accuracy, so customers receive exactly what they ordered,” said Mike Demko, the head of AutoStore’s MFC business line, in a statement.
