At retail stores, customers will be able to weigh and scan their products with mobile self-scanning.

“This integrated technology from FutureProof Retail will revolutionise processes within and outside of the store."

Bizerba is a scale manufacturer to support mobile checkout with fresh produce and click-and-collect services in the deli department.

At self-service scales in the produce department or when ordering at the delicatessen counter, shoppers need to scan a QR code on the customer display and the selected items will get added to their checkout list.

Customers will also get the opportunity to pre-order deli items by ordering from a digital menu, which can be accessible from home or inside the store.

They can place their order through website, in-store kiosks or with FPR's white-labeled retail apps.

Using FPR's mobile checkout will help shoppers to save time by skipping checkout lines.

Employees also save time as they can manage and process orders directly through the existing Bizerba scales.

The new features can be added though a software update on the Bizerba scales.

FutureProof Retail president Di Di Chan said: “Bizerba's retail scales technology perfectly complements our mobile platform, and makes mobile self-scanning uniquely accessible to Bizerba's global install base."

Bizerba North America retail vice-president Rob Weisz said: “This integrated technology from FutureProof Retail will revolutionise processes within and outside of the store.

“Bizerba's retail scales become a multipurpose access point to the FutureProof platform. Retail staff can use the scales to monitor the store and also allow customers to checkout.”
