Wakefern taps Trigo to develop AI-based frictionless checkout technology \u2013 Trigo’s first pilot in the U.S.<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

TEL AVIV, Israel<\/span> and KEASBEY, N.J.<\/span>, Jan. 14, 2022<\/span> \/PRNewswire\/ — Trigo, an Israel<\/span>-based computer vision company disrupting retail with frictionless checkout technology, and Wakefern Food Corp., the largest retailer-owned cooperative in the U.S., today announced an agreement to pilot an autonomous supermarket making use of Trigo’s AI-based frictionless checkout technology.<\/p>\n

Wakefern, the logistics, distribution and merchandising arm for ShopRite stores, is comprised of nearly 50 member companies that independently own and operate close to 360 retail supermarkets under the ShopRite, Price Rite Marketplace, The Fresh Grocer, Dearborn Market, Gourmet Garage and Fairway Market banners. <\/p>\n

Following numerous successful launches with some of the top 10 ranking European industry partners like the UK’s Tesco and Germany’s<\/span> REWE, Aldi NORD and Netto, owned by The EDEKA Group \u2013 the Wakefern announcement marks Trigo’s first foray into the U.S. <\/p>\n

Applying Trigo’s GDPR compliant technology to various locations will allow retailers to successfully scale their business while maintaining their unique character and layout.
