Walmart is offering an ultra-streamlined shopping experience at its new Neighborhood Market location in Coral Way, Fla.
The discount giant’s latest store in the Miami market features a number of technologies designed to save time for both customers and associates. These include the first online grocery pickup offering in this section of Miami, as well as same-day grocery delivery.
The new store is also the first location in Florida to provide an expanded self-checkout option with large-basket self-checkout lanes that enable customers to scan the groceries themselves or have a designated associate assist with the transaction. Walmart is rolling out expanded self-checkout in Florida following successful testing at a prototype store in Arkansas.
In addition, associates can check customers out anywhere in the store using handheld store devices. Non-technological store conveniences include a pharmacy, full-service deli and a newly redesigned fresh produce department. According to Walmart, the store will create about 100 new jobs.
