Three years after introducing Simbe Robotics’ autonomous robot Tally to select stores to enhance inventory management, St. Louis, Missouri-based Schnuck Markets announced it is launching the technology in an additional 46 stores. This will leverage Tally’s real-time data to improve the shopping experiences in 62 locations. Simbe logo

“The amount of critical data and valuable insights that Tally continues to bring us from a select number of stores is immeasurable,” said Dave Steck, Schnucks VP of IT infrastructure and development.

“By expanding our partnership with Simbe and introducing Tally to more than half our stores, we will improve our in-stock position for our customers and free up our teams from tedious inventory-related tasks, allowing more focus on service. Improving our customer’s experiences has always been deeply important to us and is becoming even more critical to operations in a rapidly changing retail environment.”

Steck added that additional benefits of the Tally robot include:

  • 14x more out-of-stock detection than manual auditing and at least 20 percent reduction in out-of-stock items in stores using Tally.
  • Increased accuracy of real-time inventory that feeds into Schnucks’ automated replenishment system, allowing for more efficient inventory management.
  • Streamlined ordering and replenishment, ensuring store shelves are restocked quicker to meet customer needs.
  • Access to real-time product location data through the Schnucks Rewards app, enabling more efficient shopping trips for customers and stocking for teammates.

With this latest expansion, on average, Tally will scan more than 4.2 million products per day – giving Schnucks accurate, frequent and comprehensive insights into product flow and operations.

Founded in St. Louis in 1939, Schnuck Markets Inc. is a third-generation, family-owned grocery retailer, operating 112 stores in Missouri, Illinois, Indiana and Wisconsin and employing more than 14,000 teammates.
