A strong mobile order fulfillment tool makes it easy for college stores to pick, fill and distribute orders. Online shopping or order pickup will continue to grow as retail evolves to meet customer demands. Your college store needs to be prepared to offer students and customers a seamless online shopping experience with quick and easy shipping or in-store pickup.
Mobile order fulfillment and streamlined order distribution has never been more important. With social distancing and limited occupancy requirements, many stores are looking to curbside pickup, in-store pickup or package shipping to serve students and ensure they can get the materials they need for the upcoming term.
“We found a lot of people still wanted the store experience. Even though they weren't coming inside the store, they liked that they were able to drive up to the store and talk to someone. It gave them a chance to ask questions like what adapter they needed. We were able to help them outside,” Alex Parra, Associate Director, University of Utah Campus Store said.
