No luck. I keep driving. Minutes later, there’s a slim break in the grey soup. Just ahead, I see the sloping green letter “S” on what appears to be an ordi- nary concrete building. Hopping out of my car, I head inside Sobeys’ Vaughan, Ont., distribution centre. And I’m awestruck. It’s not just the size of the place, which is huge: a half-million square feet, or eight football fields, underneath 70-foot ceilings. It’s surprisingly quiet in this mammoth facility. The most interest- ing thing is there’s almost no one around. That’s because most of the work is done by machines. Welcome to the brave new world of automated grocery distribution centres. This DC, which opened in 2009, at a whopping cost of $150 mil- lion, is as rare as warehouses come. Only 27 like it exist in the world, and a few of those are so new they’ve yet to be built. From the time product enters the warehouse, through picking and pallet assembly, everything is automated. The technol- ogy comes from Witron, a German logistics firm, and Sobeys is so sure of its ability to improve effi- ciencies and support stores that it’s about to open a similar DC this spring in Terrebonne, Que.

  • Sobeys Pilots Smart Cart, the First Intelligent Grocery Shopping Cart Sobeys Smart Cart Will Enhance the Overall In-Store Shopping Experience
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE October 23, 2019 Sobeys pilots Smart Cart, the first intelligent grocery shopping cart Sobeys Smart Cart will enhance the overall in-store shopping experience Mississauga, ON – Sobeys is bringing the first intelligent shopping cart to Canadian grocery stores with the launch of the Sobeys Smart Cart, an innovative technology-enhanced shopping cart that provides customers with a highly-engaging, fun and fast way to shop. Canada’s Family Grocery Store is piloting the Sobeys Smart Cart beginning today at the grocer’s Glen Abbey Sobeys location in Oakville, Ontario. The Sobeys Smart Cart aims to enhance the in-store shopping experience with a focus on improving one of the greatest points of customer friction – in-store checkout lineups. The cart’s groundbreaking technology scans and weighs products as customers place them in the cart, displays a running tally of purchases while the customer shops, and allows customers to pay on the spot with the cart. No waiting, no line-ups. “While products and customer eating habits have evolved, the in-store grocery shopping experience has remained relatively static for the last 100 years.” said Mathieu Lacoursiere, Vice President, Retail Support at Sobeys Inc. “This is a unique way for us to test innovative new technologies aimed at enhancing the customer shopping experience and learn how best to make it faster and easier. The carts will also give our in-store teammates more time to interact with customers and answer questions about food and new products.” Equipped with AI and machine learning technology, the cart will continually evolve to improve beyond a speedy checkout.
