Following the pilot of its first Autonomous Store ('Blackbox' project developed with Casino group), Monop has again 
leveraged Shekel Brainweigh Retail Innovation Division's Capsule, an autonomous micro market framework, to power its 
second store. The new store, opening today for the commercialization phase, is located in Rue De Marseille, Paris. The 
new store deploys a new concept where the Autonomous store section is part of a standard shop during working hours, but 
once the store closes, the autonomous store section remains open with unique access control. The Autonomous store 
utilizes several technologies to provide an unattended, contactless shopping experience where shoppers use a mobile 
payment apps to walk in, select their goods and walk out, providing the retailer with alternate, off-hours, revenue 
sources. 
Monop is part of the French retailer, Casino Group and the technology is deployed through the partnership between 
Shekel Brainweigh and the innovation teams of the Casino group in place since the end of 2019. 
To enter the autonomous store section, a shopper is identified using a secured payment. The shopper then selects their 
items, each of which is registered via Shekel's Product Aware shelves technology and a management system that is 
automatically integrated to the retailer's POS. Once the shopping is done, the shopper leaves the store without needing 
to check out through traditional self-checkout machines or via store cashiers. Since all administrative processes are 
automated, such as calculating and paying for purchases, shopper's experience is truly frictionless that streamlines 
his time in store. 
Mr. Udi Wiesner, General Manager of Shekel Brainweigh Retail Innovation Division: "Monop has been consistently 
demonstrating its leadership and innovation not only in technology adoption but also bringing to the market new, 
creative concepts of shopping experience and efficiency to its customers. Shekel brings its Product Aware Technology 
for product recognition, and together with our partners in the project we provide first of its kind solution for 
Autonomous 'store in store' concept, hence spearheading a real revolution in the retail landscape. That would let 
customers buy 24/7 while experiencing totally frictionless customer journey. Bringing autonomous stores to retail in 
Europe, as demonstrated in this store, is a very important signal to the market for the adoption and utilization of 
such solutions, and a highly cost-effective way to get closer to what consumers expect'. The founders, Guy Moshe - CTO 
& Eliran Vaknin - Head of Products, who have vast experience in retail innovation startups, have been personally 
involved and led the deployment of this project because of its strategic importance.
