For instance, in April 2023, Toshiba Global Commerce Solutions Inc., a retail automation platforms supplier, unveiled “mission control” a global services command center for the business's Proactive Availability Services solution, which would assist retailers globally and provide remote, secure monitoring insights for in-store system technology. Retailers can activate intelligence about their retail store systems using the company's "mission control" site for Proactive Availability Services. It allows retailers to predict, diagnose, and resolve system needs quickly and remotely, minimizing downtime. Companies are also adopting various business strategies to attract potential clients and achieve higher profitability from this potential market.
For instance, in July 2023, Coalescent Mobile Robotics, a retail automation software provider, partnered with StrongPoint, a grocery retail solutions provider, to facilitate Coalescent Mobile Robotics accessing StrongPoint’s extensive network and expertise in Europe to bring its innovative autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) to grocery retailers across the continent. Coalescent Mobile Robotics’ AMRs would gain access to StrongPoint's Order Picking solution that expedites the picking process for grocery e-commerce businesses. By combining the two solutions, grocery retailers can get significant operational efficiency savings and free up labor to focus on customer service. Thus, there is a growing demand for retail automation across grocery stores.
