The Convenience Technology Vision Group works to stay ahead of the curve – anticipating, learning, and discussing what's next. During our June meeting, we had both a primer and a conversation about #RetailMediaNetworks. The CTVG Vision Report, where you will be able to join us 'In The Room', will be out shortly but here's a preview of some of the discussions. Kevin Struthers, Axonet co-founder and chief product officer: "Your retail store has an audience that comes to it and brands need to access that audience. And when you think about the convenience space, our path to purchase is very short. You don't want to overload. The ad side of things can't overwhelm the consumer. The consumer experience still needs to be the focus on what's being done." Retailers responded: "The one-to-one marketing that is relevant to our consumers is the next generation of retail media," says Scott Smith, Parker's Kitchen Senior Director of IT. And Christopher Egan, United Dairy Farmers, CIO says "Tthere's a lot, at least on our front, from the technology front, to be developed to take full advantage of personalization."

🔓 Unlocking the benefits of Self-Checkout Self-checkout popularity is steadily on the rise, not only among customers who appreciate its speed and lack of need to interact with employees but also because it brings numerous benefits to retailers. 💡 Did you know that the very first self-checkout kiosk was introduced to the public in July 1986? It was installed in a Kroger store near Atlanta, Georgia. Since then, self-checkout technology has undergone significant advancements, becoming an integral part of modern retail and extending its reach beyond grocery stores into a wide range of industries. Even though it made its debut nearly four decades ago, self-checkout continues to evolve to meet the always-changing demands of businesses and consumers. 🛑 While valuable items are often protected with anti-theft tags, the use of the wrong technology can become a blocker, causing delays and frustration for both customers and employees.
