Japan’s second largest convenience store chain announces the roll out of the Tellermate T-ix cash counters to help cut the time spent on cash management by more than 40%; saving 30 minutes per store, per day.

Newport, UK, – December 12th,  2018FamilyMart Co., Ltd. a Japanese convenience store chain with more than 24,000 stores worldwide have announced the roll out of Tellermate’s T-ix cash counters across 8,000 Japanese locations.

The implementation of Tellermate’s T-ix cash counters will help FamilyMart to automate many aspects of its cash management process. From reconciling cash drawers, to preparing banking deposits; FamilyMart employees will now be able to quickly and accurately count and process the cash across their stores.

For FamilyMart, the acceleration of these time-consuming manual tasks is expected to generate significant operational time savings — equating to more than 30 minutes per store, per day. This means both a reduction in labour costs and more importantly, an increase in the time that employees can spend on the shop floor, enhancing the customer experience. FamilyMart Japan Implement Tellermate T-ix Cash Counters
