Allegiance Retail Services, a supermarket grocery services co-op, has launched “Scan. Pay. Go,” a mobile shopping solution, at Ferreira Foodtown at Jackson Heights in Queens, New York.
“The initiative marks a significant milestone in grocery retail innovation, aiming to redefine the shopping experience through advanced mobile solutions,” said Donna Zambo, VP and CMO of Allegiance Retail Services.
“This is one of many digital retail innovations we have planned in the coming months, which will transform how our customers shop our stores.”
“Scan. Pay. Go” enables customers to shop for all their grocery needs in three steps: download the mobile checkout app to their devices, scan product barcodes while shopping and pay by scanning a QR code near the store’s exit.
