StrongPoint signs 1.7M GBP contract with leading UK grocery retailer
StrongPoint, a grocery technology provider, has received an order from a leading UK-based grocery retailer for a checkout conversion solution. The value of the contract is approximately 1.7 MGBP. The project is led by ALS StrongPoint, StrongPoint’s UK business unit.
The checkout conversion solution allows a staffed checkout to be also used by customers as if it was a self-service checkout. This helps stores leverage existing assets and gives them greater flexibility in how they serve their customers. The unique solution was designed and developed by ALS StrongPoint in close collaboration with the customer over the last 2.5 years.
“We are proud to continue to serve one of the top UK retailers. StrongPoint has a proud reputation of listening to grocery retailers and developing cutting edge innovative solutions tailor-made to solve their problems and create better customer experiences. That this is a unique solution designed by our newly acquired UK division is a testament to their amazing fit into the StrongPoint family,” said Jacob Tveraabak, StrongPoint CEO.
The installation will be rolled out over two phases. One third will be delivered and installed before end Q4 2022 and two thirds will be delivered and installed in Q1 2023. The scope of the project is expected to increase following the successful completion of the contract as the customer decides to roll-out the solution to more of its stores.
