Walmart is enhancing its efficiency as its online business grows. The retailer revealed on Wednesday that it will be opening five automated distribution centers to cater to increasing online orders for fresh foods across the country.
CNBC reported that the new facilities are approximately 700,000 square feet each. Both frozen and chilled goods will be managed with automation, storing and retrieving perishable items such as frozen chicken nuggets and strawberries, which will be sold in stores or added to customers' e-commerce orders.
