In a partnership with Picadeli, Schnuck Markets, Inc. is providing its customers with a “smart salad bar” experience. The modular in-store salad bar innovation is now available at 22 Schnucks locations in Missouri and Illinois, as well as Eatwell Market banner shops. Picadeli’s high-tech salad bars are built with sanitary materials, technology-enabled shielding hoods, automated hand sanitiser and bowl dispensers, and an innovative utensil mounting system. The salad bars are also powered by AI and are tailored to each location, learning which ingredients are in high demand in each market. “We know customers are looking for convenient, healthy food options, and they’re going to love the fresh new experience of Picadeli,” said Ted Schnuck, EVP of supermarkets at Schnucks.
