Simbe Robotics announces The Save Mart Companies Tally robot pilot
US-based The Save Mart Companies has launched a pilot involving the Simbe Robotics autonomous inventory robot Tally.
It will deploy Tally in three Save Mart stores in the Modesto area; two Lucky California stores in Dublin and San Ramon; and two FoodMaxx locations in Modesto and Tracy.
“Deepening our commitment to innovation with this pilot programme is a reflection of our promise to our customers to ensure the best in-store experiences,” says Hal Levitt, SVP of retail operations at The Save Mart Companies.
“We’re pleased to have a strong technology partner in Simbe to support us in testing a new, effective inventory management solution in our stores and allowing us to provide better product availability.”
“The pandemic has further illuminated the critical need for strong on-shelf inventory data, and no retail solution provides this data with greater accuracy and fidelity than Tally,” comments Brad Bogolea, CEO and Co-Founder, Simbe Robotics, which was shortlisted in the Technology Vendor of the Year category at the 2020 RTIH Innovation Awards.
“Retailers are facing an ever evolving landscape, and Tally provides a cost-effective solution that enables them to stay ahead of the curve, with improved operations and efficiency.”
“Through our partnership together, The Save Mart Companies will build a more resilient supply chain and ensure the best possible experience for customers and store teams across all three of the company’s banners.”
