Mercatus, ShopperKit team up to help grocers execute online orders

TAGS

Mercatus, a digital commerce solutions provider for grocery and other retail verticals, has joined forces with in-store order fulfillment platform ShopperKit to help grocers fulfill online orders more efficiently.

The in-store fulfillment solution of ShopperKit is expected to enable Mercatus-equipped stores to quickly receive, prioritize and process orders from the websites of the retailers. As a result, this will enable grocers to provide improved in-store pickup or delivery services to their online customers.

Once an order is placed through the retailer’s Mercatus-powered eCommerce platform, Mercatus routes the order to the store, where ShopperKit’s system helps in driving efficient picking and packing methods. After the order is fulfilled, Mercatus enables the systems behind click and collect orders and partner delivery services for white label delivery.
