Albertsons embraces micro-fulfillment to power e-commerce
To support e-commerce growth, Albertsons Cos. has expanded its partnership with automation specialist Takeoff Technologies to deploy micro-fulfillment centers (MFCs) to fill online grocery orders.
Currently, Albertsons has two Takeoff-powered MFCs at Safeway supermarkets in South San Francisco and San Jose, Calif., which went into operation in the fourth quarter of 2019.
