Breakthrough for Click & Collect in Scandinavia
Today, StrongPoint Sweden has signed an agreement with Axfood for delivery of StrongPoint’s Click & Collect solutions. Axfood, is Sweden’s second largest grocery company. It has a turnover of approximately 42 billion SEK, and has great ambitions for growth within the e-commerce sector.
StrongPoint’s self service pick up lockers – have 39 configurable rooms for frozen, chilled and room tempered goods, so that absolutely all kinds of groceries may be delivered. The lockers can be placed both indoor and outdoor – up to 30 degrees below zero. StrongPoint developed the solution 100 percent and tested it in several locations in Stockholm throughout 2016. The Click & Collect concept includes integration with the respective retailers’ e-commerce platform, and SMS communication with the respective retailers’ customers. Information and operation of the solution for the consumers who pick up their goods, which they purchase and pay online, takes place on a screen on the locker at the pick-up point.
“The market for groceries is currently experiencing a period of great change. The shopping and customer experience becomes more and more digital, both in the store and online, which leads to a strong growth in e-commerce in Europe. Effective delivery of groceries, without costly transport and no restrictions on delivery times, is the key to the future of e-commerce for grocery chains and for StrongPoint’s Click & Collect success,” says CEO Jørgen Waaler at StrongPoint.
StrongPoint already received the first order of 7 systems.
