Rapidly Expanding Automated Cashier-less Retail Concept ‘Aisle 24’ Partners with Axis for Surveillance and Security

Aisle 24, a fully-automated, 24/7 cashier-less grocery chain based in Toronto, has opened its newest location in Toronto, featuring a sophisticated, integrated security solution to safeguard customers and enable franchise owners to manage their operations remotely.

The new system includes surveillance coverage, custom access control, remote control, and analytics designed to assist staff in inventory management and other business operations and it will help power the company’s expansion plans in Canada.

“These are hyper-urban grocery stores, and—given today’s busy lifestyle—people appreciate having this kind of safe and secure convenience in their neighbourhood or right in the building where they live,” said John Douang, co-founder and CEO of Aisle 24. “By emphasizing safety and security while accumulating business intelligence, we’re offering franchise owners the ability to monetize empty space and build a profitable business that places far fewer demands on their time than running a traditional grocery store.”
