Edeka is planning to replace the service counters for meat and cheese with flexible counters that can operate without personnel during off-peak hours. This is a response to the shortage of staff in the retail sector. Various Edeka regions such as Southwest, North, Minden-Hannover, North Bavaria, and South Bavaria will take this path, while Rhein-Ruhr and Hessenring will initially remain unchanged. Edeka will benefit from the experience of their Dutch partner Jumbo.

Economy
Technology
Supermarkets are automating meat counters and checkouts to save time and nerves. Edeka wants to restructure stores; Rewe branches record purchases with cameras and sensors. Customers can pay for their shopping cart themselves, without contact with staff. As a result, human, neighborhood interaction may be lost. Is this development a future model or a horror vision? Reader opinions are needed.
