Bell and Howell delivered these temperature-controlled lockers which people can use both indoors and outdoors.
“With our temperature-controlled grocery lockers, Albertsons Cos. customers can quickly and conveniently pick up their entire order, from heated to frozen food items, whenever and wherever they want,” said Larry Blue, CEO of Bell and Howell.
Fox Business explained that stores testing out the lockers will have a “PickUp” option online or in the store’s app. Customers will be able to select a time window in which they can grab their groceries. When the purchase is complete, the customers will receive a unique code. They will then use this code to pick up their order from the lockers.
