Micro-fulfillment involves utilizing a network of facilities near the end customer, to bring down the cost and time of delivering goods. Neighborhood Fulfillment Centers (NFCs) are strategically positioned within retail pockets abutting residential neighborhoods, ensuring quicker service... Large conventional distribution centers tend to be located on the outskirts of cities away from residential neighborhoods, making transporting orders from the warehouse to the customer's home costly and time-consuming. Employing automation at various stages - from sorting to packing to LAST HOUR® delivery - can significantly speed up the fulfillment process and reduce costs... NFCs provide benefit to corporations and communities alike. Their convenient location make them attractive to high-end retailers and distributors while allowing villages to collect sales tax and maintain or grow their existing tax base.
