As grocery retailers struggle to navigate consumer demand and supply chain challenges stemming from the spread of COVID-19, one provider is making its solutions more affordable.
For a limited time, Locai Solutions is making its PowerPick fulfillment management software free to grocers. PowerPick is designed to improve operating efficiency and reduce labor via multi-order pick capability, support for zone picking and a simplified order consolidation process.
The company will waive monthly fees for the first 90 days on an annual contract for a grocer’s in-store fulfillment solution.
