NCR provides e-commerce solution to supermarket chain Northgate

October 8, 2021

NCR Corp. has rolled out its e-commerce solution Freshop to Northgate Gonzalez Market, a supermarket chain with 42 stores in Orange, Los Angeles, Riverside and San Diego counties. Freshop provides grocers both e-commerce and delivery services, according to a press release.

"We needed to bring the Northgate experience to our customers digitally but also cost efficiently and were excited how quickly we were able to do that with NCR," Mike Hendry, EVP, marketing and merchandising, Northgate, said in the release. "We have partnered with NCR to unveil Pronto Curbside, our online shopping service which allows customers to order their favorite Northgate products and get them safely loaded into their car."

This deployment builds on NCR's past deployments including NCR's point-of-sale solution Emerald. With this integration, the store can introduce new capabilities and services more quickly.

"Retailers today have to quickly upgrade their lanes to meet shoppers' changing expectations," David Wilkinson, president and general manager of NCR Retail, said in the release. "We are pleased to work with Northgate to help them bring convenience, contactless and safety to their customers through NCR's solutions that run the store."
