Constantly Innovating the Art of the Fresh Food Presentation
By partnering with its customers and applying decades of engineering and merchandising experience, Structural Concepts continues to develop the next generation of innovative food merchandising products.
The award-winning Autonomous Retail Merchandiser (ARM), a cashier-less transactional system providing 100% security and inventory control and management that offsets labor and operational challenges, is available in both refrigerated and ambient settings. One feature includes an ID verification scanner that can read and authenticate government-issued identifications. This technology not only protects businesses but also helps maintain community standards by preventing underage access to restricted items.
In addition to accepting various types of payments, the ARM also grants access through membership account numbers. This is the perfect application for country clubs, health club facilities, and any other organization that wants to sell merchandise on a 24/7 basis while still being able to track individual usage to bill its members.
Depending on the selling situation, the ARM can now transition from a cashier-less system to one of a utility open cooler where product can be manually taken out and purchased at the checkout counter.
The new myDesignPro, a multi-platform 3D product configurator visually demonstrates how equipment will look and line up. Users can add features and modify options, such as how the case will appear in an actual line-up, determine shelving or other accessories, include a specific exterior or interior finish, and bring in any other available option.
FreshWatch, an advanced, cloud-based solution providing real-time monitoring, remote diagnostics, and energy optimization that ensures food safety, reduces waste, and improves operational efficiency, was recently previewed at the National Restaurant Association Show. With proactive alerts and detailed insights on power consumption and equipment performance, operators can minimize downtime, lower costs, and boost profitability.
