Aldi Australia has announced it will expanding its trial of self-service checkouts outside New South Wales, with 10 stores across Victoria being added to the scheme.
Historically resistant to introduce self-service checkouts, Aldi Australia store operations director Robert Eichfeld told news.com.au initial feedback had been positive.
“Shoppers also commented that they enjoyed the choice and appreciated the convenience of having a quick and easy option when only shopping for a few items,” he said.
“Since self-checkouts entered the Australian grocery sector, we’ve been watching with keen interest the convenience they provide customers as well as the value and efficiencies they drive for business.”
