q.beyond – Expect The Next

q.beyond is the dynamic partner for innovative digital solutions around the topics cloud, SAP and IoT. After the successfully completed investment round, Snabble and q.beyond are expanding their collaboration accordingly. Exciting joint projects are to be expected. The companies have already been united by a strong partnership and a common focus on collective solutions since November 2020.

Joint Focus

The focus of the partnership is on digitizing retail and improving retailers' business models. Snabble is already successfully supporting retailers in expanding stores by offering various self-checkout options. q.beyond also offers additional POS-related services via StoreButler, such as electronic shelf labels or zero-waste management.

The common goal is to be able to offer retailers various options for digitizing processes. These offerings can be individually adapted to the existing business model.

The StoreButler From q.beyond

The StoreButler makes it possible for retailers to integrate smart solutions into their stores and IT landscapes - straightforwardly, cost-effectively and quickly. The basis of StoreButler is a combination of a wide variety of technologies - primarily from the IoT sector: edge devices, sensor technology and a cloud-based edge computing platform. This platform is useful for centralized control and location-independent networking of edge devices and the deployment of container applications.

A Glimpse Of The Future

With q.beyond, we will use our joint expertise in the future to advance retail even further in digitalization topics. The aim is to extend the innovation lead in retail and create additional growth potential.

Jürgen Hermann, CEO q.beyond, outlines the prospects:

 "The StoreButler and Snabble's Scan & Go solution are ideal tools for digitizing stores. We are very much looking forward to working with Snabble to advance the digitization projects of our retail customers."
