Bremerhaven. (bm) Why should service station stores handle innovations differently than traditional stationary retail? BP USA for instance, part of BP PLC, is currently changing the experience for convenience store shoppers by integrating automated checkout into Amoco and am:pm stores. For that BP is working with Grabango, the leading provider of checkout-free technology for existing stores, to retrofit the first 10 convenience store locations across the BP network – Grabango’s largest multi-store roll-out ever. By introducing Grabango’s technology within select stores, BP is taking a serious step on the path towards an innovative future for the convenience store experience. Other topics of the week:
