How Schnucks Uses Robotics & Innovation to Deliver Better Customer Experiences

About This Webinar

This webinar is sponsored by BrainCorp.

Schnucks, a large midwestern grocery chain, knows that customers have options when it comes to buying their groceries, so the company works hard to differentiate itself by delivering outstanding customer experiences. One of the ways the company does that is by embracing innovation, especially robotics, which takes care of mundane and repetitive tasks and allows teammates to do what they like best: serving customers. Learn how Schnucks is using technology ahead of the holiday season to better realize its “customer first” values, and why adoption of robotics among retailers is likely to accelerate in the wake of the recent health crisis. In this webinar, you will learn:

● How Schnucks is using robotics to free up time for teammates to focus on higher value tasks, such as customer service
● How Schnucks’ cutting edge “innovation journey” is delivering powerful results that customers notice
● The different types of robotic applications that retailers can use to enhance operational efficiencies, and support workers
● The latest robotic trends and best practices that will take the retail and grocery industry into the future
