STELLARTON, NS - Last we heard of Empire-owned Sobeys' game-changing e-commerce format Voilà, the company had recently announced a brand-new partnership with Ocado. Empire then announced that it planned to utilize the new Voilà e-commerce solution to build automated warehouses. In a recent company update, however, Empire teased the acceleration of this Voilà technology amidst a growing need for online grocery resources.

Empire management anticipates that online grocery needs will likely remain elevated in the long-term as customers become more comfortable with online grocery delivery, according to a press release. As a result, the consumer launch of Voilà, the online grocery home delivery service, has been accelerated to meet the increasing demand from shoppers for delivery.
