Grocery retailers have released technology to automatically check the expiration date of dairy products labeled at the checkout. Magnit will test it first. The network will gradually connect each store within a month.
The new digital solution will block expired items during scanning. Customers will not be able to purchase such products. This is how they told Izvestia in the company and confirmed it in the Center for the Development of Advanced Technologies (CRPT).
In fact, the technology will work as follows: from the Chestny Znak marking system, the seller will receive data on the expiration date of the goods at the moment when the stamp on the checkout is scanned. If the system repairs an expired product, it will block the transaction. In other words, even if the product ends up in the buyer’s possession, its sale will be technically impossible.
The company noted that this can happen, for example, when store employees did not have time to remove the delay from the shelves, or the customer took it by mistake.
In December, X5 Group, which owns the Pyaterochka and Perekrestok retail chains, launched a personal analysis service for X5 Club members. It allows the buyer to analyze their spending in Pyaterochka and Perekrestok for 2022.
