The Aldi location promises “Checkout just got faster” and encourages customers to download the app that enables them to “Shop. Scan. Go.”
Shoppers might not notice until they reach the checkout that this Aldi location is unlike any other in the rapidly growing chain.
Aldi customers might not even recognize the new technology that is embedded in the ceiling.
The supermarket is equipped with an unknown number of miniature cameras installed in the ceiling that enable shoppers to skip the process of scanning products at checkout.
It’s the only known store the Batavia, Ill.-based grocer has in operation that features the technology.
Once customers are done shopping, they can make their way to a kiosk at the front of the store, scan a QR code on the app, and walk out.
