Sensei, a global leader in autonomous retail technology, has announced the introduction of “the world’s largest autonomous supermarket”, in partnership with Portugal’s leading grocery retailer Sonae MC.
The 1,200 s m Continente Bom Dia store in Leiria is described as integrating computer vision, shelf sensors and real-time inventory tracking, in “a new customer experience with democratic entry, which simplified real-time basket checkout, discrepancy detection and streamlining the grocery experience for customers”.
Unlike other autonomous stores, consumers do not need an app, card, or registration to access the store.
“This new store represents a significant milestone in the innovation and modernization of the retail sector, combining the support of our employees with Sensei’s technology to create a unique shopping experience”, said Luís Moutinho, CEO of MC (Sonae Group). “We are excited to witness how this innovative store will serve the community and are confident in the experience it will provide to our customers”.
“Sensei’s technology goes beyond eliminating checkout lines – it enhances the entire shopping journey while providing retailers with invaluable real-time data to optimize their operations”, added Vasco Portugal, CEO and Co-Founder of Sensei.
