Chestnut Market has implemented Mashgin’s artificial intelligence (AI) checkout system at its Bethel, Conn., location. This marks the first Shell-branded store to roll out on Mashgin’s technology, which integrates with Shell’s payment network through the Invenco EDGEPro device.
This technological advancement represents a significant step forward in modernizing the convenience store experience. CStore Decisions recently honored Chestnut Market with a Best Store Design Award for its Hutchinson Parkway location that features six Mashgin kiosks.
“After witnessing the tremendous success of Mashgin’s technology at our Hutchinson Parkway location, where we completely eliminated checkout lines, we’re excited to bring this same level of convenience to this location’s customers,” said Faheem Jamal, director of retail at Chestnut Market. “Retail is detail, and keeping lines short is a big one. This continued expansion demonstrates our commitment to enhancing the customer experience through innovative, practical technology.”
A key capability of the Invenco EDGEPro device is enabling options for third party POS systems to be integrated at retail stations. Mashgin’s AI system and Shell’s payment network are a pivotal example of delivering technological capabilities.
“We’re excited to add Mashgin, one of the quickest and most intuitive AI POS options for Shell Branded locations,” said Elaine Mohr, general manager of operations at Shell Mobility Americas. “This seamless integration demonstrates the value brought to stores with EDGEPro technology as it rolls out across the country.”
This implementation represents a significant milestone in the convenience store industry, combining Shell’s trusted fuel operations with cutting-edge AI technology to create a faster and customer-friendly shopping experience. Chestnut Market plans to deploy Mashgin’s AI-powered checkout system into additional stores this year.
“The team at Chestnut is truly exceptional when it comes to building stores that people want to visit,” said Jack Hogan, senior vice president of partnerships at Mashgin. “This collaboration with Shell helps us to deliver that next level of customer experience at Chestnut Market, and we look forward to the same for more branded Wholesalers going forward.”
Chestnut Market is a family-owned convenience store chain operating 75 locations in New York, New Jersey and Connecticut.
