Weis Markets reduces store friction with self-checkout

A regional grocer is providing customers with a choice of checkout options.

Weis Markets is deploying as assortment of cash and cashless self-checkout systems in the vast majority of its 198 locations in Pennsylvania, Maryland, New York, New Jersey, Delaware, Virginia and West Virginia. The retailer seeks to enable customers to complete transactions in a more personalized, timely and efficient manner, with a more tailored and frictionless checkout experience.
 
Toshiba’s self-service technology offers Weis Markets a more personalized point-of-purchase experience and achieves its goal of faster shopper checkout while maximizing each lane’s utilization. Weis Markets also utilizes Toshiba’s TcX POS technology throughout all of its East Coast locations.

Toshiba’s business partner Pomeroy is the primary systems integrator responsible for project management, providing software integration and testing. Weis Markets currently deploys the latest Toshiba self-checkout solutions, and Toshiba and Pomeroy are scheduled to complete its rollout with the inclusion of additional Self-Checkout System 6 lanes across the grocer’s physical footprint in 2020. 

“The inclusion of Toshiba self-checkout systems across our stores improves our overall customer experience,” said Weis Markets CIO Greg Zeh. “Beyond affording our clientele a more personal checkout, Toshiba’s technology and operational expertise have helped improve throughput and overall store performance.”
