ABSTRACT:
At online grocer FreshDirect LLC, technology doesn't support the business strategy; it is the business strategy. Founded in 1999, the $240-million company processes 6,000 online orders a day out of a single warehouse in Queens. Time-strapped New Yorkers don't have to traverse the busy aisles of a traditional store; they can order Skippy and Tide online, along with made-to-order items like prepared meals; some 50 blends of fresh-roasted coffee; and kosher or organic meat, all packaged and delivered the next day to their specifications.
