Grupo Éxito has become the first grocery retailer in Colombia to adopt scalable self-checkout technology from Toshiba Global Commerce Solutions.

Between the end of 2022 and early 2023, consumers will find a new self-checkout experience at its stores across the company’s banners, including Éxito, Carulla, Surtimax and Super Inter.

“We are excited to implement the industry leading Toshiba Self Checkout System 7 solution that is equipped to evolve with the latest retail innovations and developments,” says Camilo Gallego, Grupo Éxito’s Vice President.

“The system is flexible and easy to use, offering the added convenience of frictionless technology to simplify the self-checkout experience for our consumers. It offers everything we need in one solution.”

The implementation of 300 systems will initially be made at the company’s Éxito and Carulla branded stores.

“Grupo Éxito is a very important customer in South America and we feel privileged to support them along their journey to meet changing consumer preferences with our most advanced self-service solutions,” says Bill Campbell, Senior Vice President Head of Global Sales at Toshiba Global Commerce Solutions.

“We are equally thankful for the strong relationships we have with our regional business partners who are essential to bringing innovations to retailers and implementing our solutions in local markets.”
