Coca-Cola Co, facing a world where consumers fill up Amazon baskets instead of grocery carts, is trying to raise its tech game.

That includes upping the appearance of its “digital shelf,” integrating with voice products like Amazon’s Echo, and adding impulse buy opportunities to click-and-collect pickup lockers.
