Shops, end of confinement, curfew, restaurants ... the schedule for the coming weeks


Called "Gate control", this tool has just been developed by Stackr, an SME from Ain, the European leader in flow management which already equips 22,000 points of sale with smart metering devices for marketing and commercial purposes. .

Its CEO, Franck Zulian began to design the tool during the first confinement.

"But in the spring, at the time of deconfinement, the shops were not attacked by customers and ultimately did not need to limit their flow".

Cultura and Intersport equip themselves

This time around, as Christmas approaches, the situation is different and Stackr has set about designing a second version of its Gate control.

This counts the entrants and triggers a green signal to allow the next customer to enter, or red when the gauge is reached, prohibiting any new entry.

Some brands are already installing it in stores this week in anticipation of their reopening.

This is the case of Cultura, a specialist in cultural and leisure articles which is now equipping its 94 stores, Intersport brands, but also many toy shops, bookstores, DIY stores, garden centers, supermarkets and hypermarkets, shopping centers and shopping malls and even covered markets.

“We received 200 orders in three weeks and we expect to double the volume of our sales,” says Franck Zulian.

To cope, the boss of this hyper-growing company even had to review his organization.

While the metering systems were installed by in-house technicians, Stackr developed a stand-alone version.

“The customer receives a gantry, screen and sensors and assembles everything himself with the help of a tutorial”, summarizes the boss.

Just to be ready as quickly as possible to save the season.
