Join the automated retail revolution with the Invenda smart fridge
Is your existing fridge solution delivering the right commercial performance? Is it in line with your customers’ expectations?
If the answer is “no”, then it’s time to transform your fridges with Invenda technology.
Ordinary fridges face several limitations
There are plenty of reasons why traditional fridges have become outdated. They take up precious floor space, and yet aren’t always optimized to provide a great customer experience. Loss prevention is difficult to keep at low levels when the fridge doesn’t have any way of protecting itself from thieves. To summarise, some of the key issues are:
- Limited or zero theft protection
- Manual inventory management and temperature control
- Lackluster appearance
- Lack of promotion opportunities
- Limited or zero product information
Our smart fridge family
Our stand-alone smart fridges currently come in three configurations:
A no-frills version without a screen, a small 7-inch screen, and large 46-inch screen configurations feature:
- Optical sensor for audience recognition
- Product recommendations
- Contactless payment integration
- Smart lock enabled
- Cloud connectivity for remote price, content and inventory management
The large 46-inch screen also features full digital signage.
All our smart fridge configurations can be paired with a smart kiosk in a primary and secondary device configuration.
Retrofit your existing fridges
If you love the fridges you have and want to bring them back to life, retrofitting them is an exciting proposition.
Network your current fridges to other smart fridges, or to a separate ordering kiosk, and enhance your existing fridges with a smart lock and door sensor.
