UK online supermarket giant Ocado has launched a ‘customer fulfilment centre’ in Canada, in which it will process orders on behalf of popular Canadian supermarket Sobeys. This is the second international fulfilment centre Ocado has opened this year, after it opened its first in Paris, France. Ocado’s chief executive, Luke Jensen, has said “These are testament to the amazing working partnerships we have developed, particularly under recent challenging circumstances with COVID-19.”
