Visitors to this week’s CES in Las Vegas will be able to browse and buy goods from an autonomous smart store set up in the North Hall of the Las Vegas Convention Center by local company VenHub.

The complete 7.3 by 3 by 3m smart store will be live and open for real-time use.

Visitors will have the opportunity to buy hundreds of products directly from their smartphones, watch the automated fulfilment process in action, and see how VenHub delivers fast, precise and contactless retail in a real-world setting. The store will be fully functioning, operating exactly as it does in live deployments across the country, not a demo or concept display.

“CES is where the future gets real,” said Shahan Ohanessian, CEO of VenHub. “We’re not coming to show slides or talk theory. We’re bringing a live, fully functioning smart store that people can use, touch and experience for themselves. This is how retail should work today, always available, easy to use and built to serve people wherever they are.”

He said what excited him the most and demonstrated the power of autonomous retail was watching people interact with the store for the first time.

“They see how simple it is, how clean the experience feels and how quickly it delivers,” he said. “That moment says everything about where retail is headed. We’re proud to bring that experience to CES and to share what our team has built.”

The stores combine robotics, automation and mobile-first checkout to create a seamless, unattended shopping experience. Each store operates around the clock without on-site staff, offering instant access to everyday essentials while maintaining secure, managed operations. Designed for high-traffic environments, the platform is said to deliver reliability, precision and consistency at scale.
