Kaufland tests AvoScanner: less waste, more confidence on the shelf

A perfectly ripe avocado shouldn't be a matter of luck. At Kaufland Barbu Văcărescu in Bucharest, customers can already test a new way to make informed choices: with the help of a smart scanner, which analyzes the fruit and indicates its ripeness level in just a few seconds.

AvoScanner, also known as Avoscan, is a device based on NIR (near-infrared) technology, which scans the internal texture of the fruit without damaging it. The result is clearly displayed: unripe, ripe or overripe. For Kaufland, testing this solution is a concrete step towards a more transparent, sustainable and customer-friendly retail. For consumers, it is a trusted tool that reduces the risk of buying an unsuitable product, while also helping to reduce food waste.

As distributor, Eutron supports such initiatives that show that innovation can bring real value to the daily shopping experience. Watch the Aleph News video report: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aD9pkULQ6i
