Meaning of dark stores?
A dark store is a retail store (e.g., groceries, home goods retailers, and clothing brands, etc.) converted into a micro-fulfillment center, and its layout is organized and optimized for retail fulfillment for online orders. These retail distribution outlets are not open to shoppers, which provides more space store inventory and accurately fulfill orders for customers. Once the order is placed, items can be picked and packed in the dark store and either shipped or picked up by the customer locally. This provides retailers with options for local and all customers.

What is the purpose of a dark store?
Dark stores make it possible for brands to stock more inventory as compared to a brick-and-mortar space with limited inventory storage. Especially during the COVID-19 pandemic, dark stores helped merchants with physical locations provide contactless delivery and pickup options for their customers.
Many merchants are seeing the long-term benefits of having one or more dark store locations as they’ve been proven to improve order accuracy, speed up fulfillment time, and offer more space to hold inventory. It’s also a great way to get order to customers faster by offering different delivery options
Who should open a dark store?
A dark store is a great option for any retailer that needs more options and space to fulfill a large volume of online orders through their physical store. Ecommerce grew rapidly this year due to the pandemic, and it’s a trend that will continue. Retailers that once relied solely on selling products at a physical location can now quickly grow online sales by converting their physical space(s) into a warehouse to quickly fulfill orders and store more inventory.
