Invata Intralogistics Awarded Fulfillment Center Optimization Contract

Invata Intralogistics announced it has been awarded a contract to provide performance enhancements and optimization services at two existing fulfillment centers operated by Vitacost.com, Inc., a leading online retailer and direct marketer of health and wellness products. Invata will also be implementing its FastTrak® WM+ software, designed to meet the real time business needs of a high-speed fulfillment center that requires a large array of sophisticated automation.
