Checkers Rush - New checkout-less, queue-less concept store

Shoprite has showcased its latest retail innovation - an automated, cashless “no queues, no checkout, no waiting” concept store called Checkers Rush.

The store is located at the offices of Shoprite's new digital business unit ShopriteX, which was officially launched on Wednesday.

Shoprite chief of strategy and innovation Neil Schreuder said the Checkers Rush store was one of his favourite "pet projects".

Before posting irrelevant crap; read the article. Store is only for its employees at their head office. No public launch date set and there probably won't be for a few more years. If ever.

In SA it would be never, the labour unions won't allow this as it will be seen as taking jobs from the bunch of ever so helpful cashiers.

Came here to say this, it will only work if you put cooking oil on the floor.

Cool concept, nice for their staff working at that location. Have a feeling this is more of a publicity stunt than anything.

Not according to the article. Its for their employees only at that specific office. No public launch date set.

irrelevant crap, because they have no intention of going public with this, based on the article. So its a moot point.
