H-E-B Expands Cashierless Checkout to Austin

San Antonio-based retailer H-E-B has expanded its cashierless checkout app, H-E-B Go, to seven stores in Austin, Texas, according to local reports.

The app, which launched in San Antonio earlier this year, allows customers to scan products as they pick them up off the shelves and go to a kiosk located next to the exits to scan a QR code before walking out of the store.

"Grocery shopping is certainly changing and evolving and H-E-B is keeping pace with every way that our customers want to shop," said Leslie Sweet, director of public affairs, in the local news report.

With 400 stores in Texas and Mexico, H-E-B is No. 6 on Progressive Grocer’s 2018 Super 50 list of the top grocers in the United States.
