Tompkins Robotics has introduced a new robotics system referred to a t-Sort for unit and parcel sortation. Analysts I spoke with believe Tompkins Robotics has the most potential for becoming the go-to provider of robotics to grocery retailers, CPG companies and companies in multiple industries because Tompkins Robotics is a division of Tompkins International. Tompkins International (and its divisions Monarch Fx and Nexus Fx) is a leader in providing strategy, robotics, automation, supply chain, digital, logistics and value-creation solutions. As I write later in the article, grocery retailers need a holistic solution to increase the customer experience and create a competitive advantage.
