AB Vassilopoulos continues to invest in modern digital solutions that make everyday shopping faster, easier, and more flexible, while also boosting the efficiency of its operations.
According to the relevant press release, from the upgraded Self Checkout registers and the new AB Plus features at AB Kiosks, to digital services for rechargeable meal cards and new tools at Distribution Centers, the company is delivering tangible value from its digital investments, for the benefit of its customers, partners, and employees.
At the heart of this strategy is the continuous improvement of in-store service. The new generation of Self Checkout kiosks in AB stores has been redesigned to meet customer needs, offering a simpler and more user-friendly environment with fewer steps to complete a transaction. At the same time, it incorporates new features, such as redeeming AB Plus points directly through the wallet and paying with more than one payment method in the same transaction.

At the same time, AB Plus personalized offers are now available not only online but also at AB Kiosks in stores. By scanning their AB Plus card, customers can instantly view their weekly personalized offers and activate them with a single click. In this way, AB brings its digital channels even closer to the in-store shopping experience, enhancing its omnichannel service.
The technology is also utilized in services that assist specific groups of customers and partners. Through the digital service vouchercards.ab.gr, holders of AB rechargeable meal cards can now check their available balance online before visiting the store. This gives them a better idea of their available balance and makes it easier to plan their purchases.
At the same time, AB Vassilopoulos is investing in the digital transformation of its internal operations. At its Distribution Centers, the company is upgrading its Voice Picking system, moving into the new era of Lydia Voice, one of the leading systems globally. The new application enhances the productivity and accuracy of picking and distribution processes, with new features such as Multistore Picking and Put-to-Light, which visually guides the operator to the exact placement location of the picked products, reducing errors and increasing the speed and accuracy of order picking at distribution centers.

In the same vein, the company has moved to daily inventory valuation, transitioning from monthly calculations to daily tracking, with the aim of achieving greater accuracy in financial data, improved predictability, and faster decision-making. This change enhances transparency and allows for even more immediate monitoring of critical indicators, leading to better internal management and faster decision-making.
Furthermore, according to the announcement, AB Vassilopoulos is implementing tools to optimize product placement (slotting) at its Distribution Centers, with the aim of more accurately positioning products in warehouses, reduce handling time, increase productivity, and optimize the use of available space. This is yet another initiative that links technology with daily operational efficiency.
Consistent with its strategy of innovation, simplicity, and better service, AB Vassilopoulos leverages technology as a driver of progress, with solutions that address real needs and help shape the store and infrastructure of tomorrow.
