The COVID-19 pandemic is predicted to have a significant impact on the self-checkout system market in the short-term owing to the shutdown of manufacturing plants across the globe. The result of halting production and sales will create a pile of orders, forcing manufacturers to increase the cost of the equipment. The closure of physical stores and restaurants globally due to imposed lockdown will also impact the industry growth. However, changes in consumer shopping habits in response to the COVID-19 pandemic will encourage industries to deploy touchless or robust self-checkout options in stores.
