Automated Retail Outlets: Provision of Goods in Situations of Scarcity Without Human Intervention
Introducing the Qwik24 Smart Store Concept by MCS
MCS Marketing and Convenience-Shop System GmbH, a leading company in the convenience retail industry, has introduced an innovative solution to modern shopping needs - the Qwik24 Smart Store. This autonomous 24/7 convenience store concept is designed for operators in the convenience market, offering a fully automated shopping experience without the need for staffed checkout counters [1].
The Qwik24 Smart Stores are strategically positioned to transform locations such as electric vehicle (EV) charging parks into smart supply hubs. By providing customers with a digital and flexible shopping experience while their vehicles charge, these stores cater directly to the 50% of EV charging park customers who express a desire to shop in Smart Stores during the charging process [1].
The Qwik24 Smart Stores address labor shortage issues in the grocery and convenience retail sector by eliminating the need for on-site personnel to manage sales or restocking during operations. This automation ensures continuous availability and service without relying on staffing [1]. This efficiency enhancement supports modern infrastructure demands sustainably.
The Qwik24 Smart Stores can be deployed in modular containers or existing properties, making them adaptable to various locations. They offer a local grocery assortment, a shop concept, and a modern marketing package, ensuring a seamless grocery supply in a short time [1].
The implementation of Qwik24 Smart Stores is designed to be simple and practical, with innovative and affordable technologies for access control and payment processing. The new concept, transmitted by ots from MCS, may contribute to ensuring local supply in times of increasing skilled labor shortages.
