Mitsubishi Logisnext Americas Join Efforts to Sponsor the 2024 FedEx St. Jude Championship

MEMPHIS, Tenn. (Aug. 13, 2024) – Mitsubishi Logisnext Americas Inc. (Logisnext), a leading North American provider and manufacturer of material handling and innovative automation and fleet solutions, is proud to announce its return as a sponsor for the 2024 FedEx St. Jude Championship.

From Aug. 14 to 18 at the TPC Southwind in Memphis, Tennessee, the tournament will feature the top 70 players on the PGA Tour competing in an exhilarating battle for the FedExCup.

This longstanding tradition underscores that golf has always been more than just a game in Memphis; it's been and continues to be a powerful force for good.
“We are immensely proud to sponsor the PGA Tour’s FedExCup Playoffs and to be part of this prestigious event for another year,” said Stu Jacover, General Manager of National Accounts, Logisnext. “This year is particularly special as we bring together all our family of brands, reinforcing our collective commitment to charitable initiatives and the communities we serve. This sponsorship highlights our dedication to social responsibility and demonstrates our unified strength and broad capabilities in the material handling industry.”
Logisnext and its family of brands extend a warm invitation to their valued Dealers and Dealer customers to join this unique golf experience. The FedEx St. Jude Championship continues to be a hallmark event in the world of golf, demonstrating the profound connection between sports and philanthropy.

Australian supermarket chain rolls out AI-powered grocery carts

Grocery shoppers in Australia will soon be able to zip in and out of the store in record time, bypassing the lines for cashiers or self-checkout kiosks altogether. They can just walk in, make their selections, and walk out with their bags in hand.

The secret to this express shopping experience is the “Caper Cart,” an AI (artificial intelligence)-powered smart trolley from San Francisco-based Instacart. In its first deployment in the Asia Pacific (APAC) region, the system is being tested by Coles Supermarkets, a food and beverage retailer with more than 1,800 grocery and liquor stores throughout the country.
