RALIEGH, N.C. — IBM has announced that it has teamed with Man-Dell Food Stores to deploy new IBM Scan-and-Bag and point-of-sale technology in five Key Food locations the company owns in the New York City area.
Man-Dell replaced NCR ScanMaster systems with new IBM SurePOS 700 Series systems running the IBM 4690 operating system, and later added the powerful new "Scan-and-Bag" self-checkout terminals from IBM.
"IBM Self Checkout offers customers a faster, more reliable and more flexible shopping experience," said Scott Schubert, MIS director of Man-Dell Food Stores. "We estimate that 28 percent of our shoppers now use self-checkout on a daily basis, which proves that busy shoppers want a speedy 'in and out' experience, without dealing with long lines."
