The largest retailer-owned grocery co-op in the US just turned its store Wi-Fi into a revenue stream. Wakefern is a $20.7B business with 48 member companies and ~365 supermarkets across nine states. ShopRite, Price Rite, The Fresh Grocer, Fairway Market, Gourmet Garage. The first stores are now live on the Helium Network, with more to follow. Supermarkets are brutal for cell signal. Concrete, steel racking, rows of freezers. The traditional fix is a DAS, and the math rarely works for a grocery store. So Wakefern is using what it already owns.
