Tractor Supply has opened its 11th distribution center, an 865,000-square-foot, $200 million-plus facility in Nampa, Idaho. The location is its first to feature KNAPP automated storage and retrieval technology alongside a dedicated on-site AI Innovation Team, with approximately 500 full-time jobs and AI fundamentals training for every team leader.
Could this be the beginning of an entirely new approach to retail workforce management? Chris Walton and Jenn Hahn discuss why putting AI expertise directly inside operations, rather than keeping it at corporate headquarters, could set an important precedent for the industry.
