A micro market is a small unattended store inside your building — open shelving, coolers, and a self-checkout kiosk. No machines, no drop bins. People shop, scan, and pay on their own.

Micro Markets FAQ
How many employees do we need?
Micro markets work best at larger sites. Tell us your headcount and shift pattern and we'll tell you honestly whether it fits.
Is theft a problem?
Open markets rely on an honor-friendly, access-controlled space. We monitor shrink and adjust if it becomes an issue.
Can we start smaller?
Yes — many locations start with machines or a smart cooler and move to a market as demand grows.
