How flow in store?

I do first produce then aisle then clothes or auto or home

1. Grab the clothes first, they’re nearest the produce section, if the Instacart order has any.
2. Locating and selecting produce that meets customer demands is a significant and time-consuming challenge.
3. Prioritizing aisle organization from low to high is crucial because time limit and time flow.
   • I did go fred meyer I alway finish 20 min early because of this.
4. Optimizing shopping flow, I expedite the process by retrieving dairy products from the back of the middle aisle; this approach significantly reduces overall shopping time.
5. Home, automotive, and gardening sections should be located further from the produce and main aisles.

Carts for 3 customer

If I have 3 customer in one batch,

I added 2 basket in my carts

That way we can separate them easy end of day no pressure and no stress.
