Save A Lot, a discount grocery chain in the US, and Fabric, an automation solutions specialist, have announced a new partnership to provide on-demand grocery delivery with the opening of a Brooklyn-based micro fulfilment centre.
This is part of a larger expansion, which includes a push into New York to enhance last mile delivery options. Orders placed from the Brooklyn online storefront on the Uber Eats app will be delivered to doorsteps by Uber couriers.
“We know consumers are looking for fast delivery options for fresh, affordable grocery essentials, so we’re pleased to be partnering with both Save A Lot and Fabric who continue to innovate in the space,” said Nathan Bernheim, Head of Enterprise Sales for Grocery and Retail at Uber.
“Together we can bring essential items to communities that need them in entirely new ways.”
“We’re committed to keeping prices low and making sure our customers have access to the essentials, especially as inflation continues to affect household budgets,” said Bill Mayo, Chief Development Officer at Save A Lot.
“Our partnership with Fabric and expansion into micro-fulfillment will streamline operations and allow us to offer accessibility to consumers wherever they are at competitive prices. We’re excited to bring this affordable, convenient shopping experience to the New York market.”
The service will launch this month at the Brooklyn warehouse, where Fabric’s cube-based storage system will automate Save A Lot’s grocery fulfilment exclusively for direct-to-consumer delivery across Brooklyn.
“Our partnership with Save A Lot uses advanced automation to tackle one of today’s biggest challenges -rising consumer prices,” said Curt Avallone, coCEO at Fabric.
“Our micro-fulfillment technology improves efficiency across the supply chain, helping retailers address the broader operational needs while delivering an exceptional customer experience. We’re proud to support the mission to make quality, affordable groceries more accessible.”
