NanoStore™

The NanoStore™ was developed as a natural extension of AiFi's automated checkout technology. It is the first unmanned, automated store in the world, packaged in a nano-sized modular store format. The store has been designed and built in several shapes and sizes and required large collaborative efforts between multiple builders, designers, engineers, and clients. After the initial introduction of the NanoStore™ at the National Retail Federation conference in New York's Javitz Center in early 2019, the store format has been imitated around the world by others and remains a highly sought after business model for many retailers. AiFi continues to supply the technology for and advise on this store format for its clients. As project manager and product owner, Tyler worked on every step from concept to public launch. He design directed, hired fabricators, architects, general contractors, sub-contractors, completed client sales and contracts, coordinated internal engineering teams, system integration and transport arrangement.
