Micro-Fulfilment Centres and ASRS: The Key to Faster Last-Mile Delivery
Speedy order fulfilment and efficient last-mile delivery have quickly become critical differentiators for e-commerce, grocery and retail businesses. With customers coming to expect same-day or next-day deliveries, traditional warehouse strategies often fall short. So how do businesses keep pace with consumers who want everything yesterday? The answer is twofold: micro-fulfilment centres (MFCs) and Automated Storage and Retrieval Systems (ASRS). These compact, high-tech hubs bring goods closer to customers and move them faster through the supply chain. When combined, they create efficiency that’s tailor-made for the last mile.
