-
Shoplifting: Unattended dispensing provides PREVENTION rather than “deterrent” options – that’s a substantial increase in profit potential right there
-
Retail theft / shrinkage: When goods cannot be marked as “stolen off the shelves” unattended distribution’s monitoring systems increase the level of accountability 10 fold
-
Inventory security costs: The highest value per $ for effectiveness. Whilst CCTV and RFID tags may deter shoplifters they do not actually STOP theft – unattended distribution does. It stands to reason that once shoplifters know your goods are no longer easy targets for theft, they will stop visiting your store
-
Automated inventory management: Provide remote easy to manage systems and with stock level alerts are a failsafe guarantee that top selling products are always available for sale
-
Staff: Using unattended distribution in specific store areas or for products that do not require staff intervention, provides effective and flexible staff utilisation in areas where they can be more productive. It also prevents your staff from being targets of aggression and abuse when they suspect theft and eliminates the need for them to apprehend shoplifters
-
Convenience: Given the well documented shortage of staff, unattended dispensing provides a quick, convenient and increasingly popular self-service option for consumers in a hurry
-
Flexibility: The current generation of smart machinery can be formatted to dispense a wide range of products
-
Scalability and cost: The unattended model is infinitely and easily scaleable; The cost of doing so is surprisingly achievable
-
Analytics: Machine management systems allow for 100% remote monitoring and produce a spectrum of reports sufficient to understand your market. Whilst personalisation options are in their infancy, AI generated up-grades to machine management systems will include this feature in the future
-
Extended Trading: The unattended dispensing industry leads the field in [almost] zero cost 24/7 trading
