Schnucks Markets added its new Deli Order Ahead Kiosks to 30 of its stores. The kiosks are now available at 67 locations in total. Guest can order various deli items, including sliced cheese, meats, and prepared foods, through the kiosks. This helps alleviate wait times in line at the deli counter.
One convenient aspect of the kiosks is its notification system. Users can enter a phone number and receive a text when their order is ready for pick up. Once their order is ready, customers are instructed to grab their order near the kiosk. This new ordering strategy is ideal for an on-the-go lifestyle and lets customers accomplish other errands while their deli items are being prepared.
