Urban Value Corner Store announced it will partner with Juxta to launch Juxta’s autonomous micromarket strategy within luxury apartment communities. The two companies are partnering on an initiative named Nest, which is an autonomous micromarket kit for indoor environments. The companies said they are “offering an innovative solution that meets the evolving needs of urban consumers and luxury apartment residents.”

Steve McKinley, founder and CEO of Urban Value Corner Store, said, “Our partnership with Juxta enables us to enhance the urban living experience by bringing unparalleled convenience and state-of-the-art, unstaffed retail solutions quite literally to residents’ doorsteps. But we’re not only elevating convenience by integrating Juxta’s cutting-edge technology, we are also providing multi-unit property developers with a unique amenity that sets their properties apart in a very competitive market.”

In the Juxta location, an AI computer vision system paired with advanced shelf sensors builds baskets in real time. When it’s time to check out, shoppers can review their basket at the checkout screen or just walk out if they’re in a hurry. They can also have a receipt sent to their phone upon leaving the store.

Steve Liguori, cofounder and chief marketing officer at Juxta, commented, "We are thrilled to join forces with Urban Value Corner Store. This collaboration is more than a sales partnership; it's a shared vision to enhance how communities interact with retail.”

In September 2023, Juxta, announced its fully autonomous and pre-assembled portable c-store model, Juxta Nomad.
