Locally developed technology helping Gwynedd & Anglesey businesses during the Covid-19 pandemic

COVID-19 poses major challenges for businesses in Gwynedd and Anglesey. Arloesi Gwynedd Wledig and Arloesi Môn are piloting new technology called StoreTally in several businesses across both counties to try and find possible solutions.

StoreTally is a Visitor Density Management product designed to give  customers the confidence their health and safety matters during times of COVID-19. Created by a local company based in M-SParc in Gaerwen, the technology counts how many people enter and leave a premesis. Once capacity has been reached, it informs customers not to enter until others have left. The device is completley customisable with any number capacity possible, meaning it can be used at small or larger premises.

During this pilot AGW and Arloesi Môn have placed the technology at several different businesses. On Anglesey it has been placed at:

• Halen Môn
• Siop Ellis Llangefni
• Tafarn Y Rhos
• Holland Arms Garden Centre
• Foel Farm

And in Gwynedd it has been placed at:

• Fron Goch Garden Centre
• Spar Nefyn
• Spar Pwllheli
• Emrys House Beddgelert
• Siop Hosbis Pwllheli

AGW and Arloesi Mon hope this will help relieve some of the pressures on businesses, and provide customers with extra reassurance. As this is a pilot, they will be learning how effective the technology is, and sharing this information with other businesses across both counties.
