NCR has announced that it has been ranked as the global market leader in the self-checkout market, according to industry analyst firm Retail Banking Research (RBR) in its June 2011 report, “Global EPOS and Self-Checkout 2011”.
 
According to the report, NCR is the world’s largest self-checkout supplier in terms of both installed base and shipments, shipping approximately 6 times as many units as its closest competitor in 2010. Approximately 67 percent of all self-checkout shipments in 2010 were NCR terminals, more than twice as many units as all other competitors combined. RBR forecasts self-checkout shipments to grow 14.7 percent yearly through 2016.
 
NCR has held the global market leader position since RBR began following self-checkout in 2008. The company also held the top spot in self-checkout market share for nearly every region tracked by RBR, including Asia-Pacific, Central and Eastern Europe, Western Europe, and North America.
 
“By offering consumers greater choices in how they checkout, retailers can offer consumers an enhanced shopping experience and make checkout faster, easier and more efficient,” said Mark Wallace, solution management director, NCR Corporation. “NCR works with some of the world’s largest retailers to bring new self-service innovations to market based on our unique understanding of consumer behavior that enable retailers to differentiate themselves, lower operating costs and attract today’s empowered and elusive consumer.”
