Factors that prompted the electronics retailer to re-prioritizing order fulfillment
The growing popularity of subscription boxes: A consumer engagement model that offers different subscription boxes at different price levels to increase loyalty is now redefining retail. To diversify the services offered, retailers are adopting subscription delivery models that include a subscription fee usually for six months or more with other added benefits like quick delivery time and exclusive offers for subscribed customers.
Rise in warehouse automation: To structure a robust delivery system and optimize the order fulfillment process, suppliers are implementing advanced technologies for warehouse automation. By using technologies such as RF scanners and heads up display (HUD) devices, retailers are enhancing productivity and reducing the chances of manual errors.
The emergence of multi-channel retailing methodologies: Service and product delivery today are not restricted to a single channel. Storefronts, e-commerce portals, and catalogs are a few avenues utilized by retailers to maximize reach.
