Shekel Brainweigh extends autonomous store tie up with Monoprix

Shekel Brainweigh has announced a second Paris-based autonomous store opening with Monoprix, part of French retailer Casino Group. 

Located in Rue De Marseille, this features an autonomous section, which is part of a standard store during working hours, but once it closes, the section remains open with unique access control. 

Shoppers use a mobile payment app to walk in, select their goods and walk out.

Udi Wiesner, General Manager at Shekel Brainweigh Retail Innovation Division, says: "Monop has consistently demonstrated its leadership and innovation, not only in technology adoption but also in bringing to the market new, creative shopping experience concepts and efficiency to its customers.”

“Shekel brings its product aware technology for product recognition, and together with our partners in the project we provide a first of its kind solution for an autonomous ’store in store’ concept, hence spearheading a real revolution in the retail landscape.”

“Bringing autonomous stores to the retail sector in Europe, as demonstrated in this store, is a very important signal to the market for the adoption and utilisation of such solutions, and a highly cost-effective way to get closer to what consumers expect.”
