Northeast Grocery Deploys AI Across Store Aisles

Tally will streamline operations by taking on repetitive tasks like scanning shelves, allowing staff to focus on customer service and other high value activities.

Northeast Grocery has launched Simbe’s Tally robot in select Price Chopper, Market 32 and Tops Friendly Markets locations.

It has introduced the AI and automation solution across many of its markets in New York, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, Connecticut, Vermont, and New Hampshire.

Scott Kessler, EVP, CIO at Northeast Grocery, said, “Tally’s autonomous, AI powered technology will navigate store aisles, scanning shelves to identify out-of-stock items and pricing discrepancies. This means more accurate pricing at checkout and better product availability for customers.”

“For shoppers, Tally’s impact will be huge – up to ten times more out-of-stock items identified compared to manual checks, and a 90% improvement in pricing accuracy. With this technology, store shelves will be better stocked, and prices will be more accurate, ensuring a smoother, more reliable shopping experience.”

He added, “For store teams, Tally will streamline operations by taking on repetitive tasks like scanning shelves, allowing staff to focus on customer service and other high value activities while improving both store efficiency and customer satisfaction.”
