Bringg recently surveyed 500 retailers in the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada, Germany, France, and Italy for its 2022 Bringg Barometer: State of Retail Delivery & Fulfillment report assessing their delivery and fulfilment operations.
Among the many findings, one was a particularly eye-opening stat: 99% of respondents say they will be doing same-day delivery within the next three years, compared to 35% who say they are able to do so today.
This is astounding, considering some of the other findings:
- Many of the current last mile fulfillment models do not support same-day or on-demand delivery, with 36% saying they don’t have the technology, citing real-time order visibility as the main problem, and 24% calling out the sheer distance they need to travel from warehouse to fulfillment as a primary obstacle to delivering on time.
- Retailers have an urgent need for greater connectivity, but a lack of visibility and outdated technology holds them back. Forty-four percent are managing multiple fulfillment channels with disparate technologies, and 61% cite problems with visibility into the last mile.
Bridging the technological gap to achieve same-day delivery operations is no small feat. Atlas Moore Logistics works with some of the best delivery software and we deliver every time, especially during peak holiday seasons.
