Modern-Expo Designs Accessible Checkout Counter

Leading store-fixture manufacturer and supplier Modern-Expo has created a special checkout counter for shoppers with disabilities, designed to make their shopping experience easier and more comfortable.

Living with a disability is a new struggle every day. Sometimes shopping can become a real challenge, but one way to ensure that all consumers are treated equally while shopping is to make the store accessible to everyone. All retailers can make this possible by outfitting their store with specially designed equipment, like Modern-Expo's new till.

"This type of checkout takes into account the needs of people with disabilities, as very often they feel a lack of comfort while making purchases at standard checkouts in the supermarket. A lower basin, additional space for wheelchair users, and special PIN-pad positioning facilitates customers' shopping experience and improves the service," said Oleksandr Melnyk, Modern-Expo’s store-fixture expert.

"We can effectively adapt our equipment to different types of retail businesses regarding regional standards and requirements," he added.

The new style of checkout counter is an excellent fit with all store formats.

More than 50 global retailers, including Intermarché, Leclerc, A2PAS and Carrefour, have already chosen these checkouts to deliver high-quality service to people with disabilities, making shopping easier and more comfortable. This equipment should be high on the priority list for every retailer who cares about its customers.
