Shenzhen Rakinda Technologies Co., Ltd.

HONG KONG — Shenzhen Rakinda Technologies Co., Ltd., a global leader in IoT and automatic identification technology, today announced the official launch of Runwu Convenience Store , Hong Kong's latest fully autonomous retail outlet, powered by Rakinda's end-to-end unmanned store solution. This milestone marks a significant step forward in Hong Kong's smart retail ecosystem and reinforces Rakinda's commitment to transforming the convenience store experience through RFID, AI, and IoT innovation.

A Seamless, Cashierless Shopping Experience
Runwu Convenience Store operates 24/7 without any on-site staff, delivering a frictionless shopping journey from entry to exit. Customers simply scan a QR code or face to enter, browse freely, and complete payment via self-service kiosks equipped with Rakinda's Android cashier terminals and RFID-enabled smart weighing stations. The system instantly identifies product quantities and individual items, cross-verifies total weight against pre-registered standards, and processes contactless payments in seconds.

Proven Technology, Tangible ROI
Rakinda's unmanned retail solution is engineered to solve the most persistent pain points in convenience store operations: soaring labor costs and rising rents. For a typical 30-square-meter convenience store, the system can replace 1–3 employees, saving over HKD 100,000 annually in labor costs alone. The technology stack includes:

RFID UHF Identification — Real-time, multi-item recognition for rapid checkout

AI Visual Recognition — 3D smart cameras and AIoT shelves for inventory tracking and loss prevention

Smart Settlement Systems — Android-powered kiosks with QR code scanning and electronic weighing

Big Data Analytics — Consumer behavior tracking for personalized product recommendations and precision marketing

Why Hong Kong, Why Now
Hong Kong's convenience retail market generated HKD 1,502 million in 2025, yet faces mounting pressure from cautious consumer spending and competition from digital delivery platforms. With 7-Eleven and Circle K commanding 97% of the market, independent operators need a technological edge to compete. Rakinda's solution offers exactly that — a low-cost, customizable unmanned supermarket platform that democratizes smart retail for businesses of all sizes.
