An autonomous smart store in Hollywood is powered by robots from California-based VenHub.

VenHub’s robots and AI-driven platform ensures precise product handling, efficient inventory management and a smooth, unattended retail experience.

The autonomous Smart Store is live at 11720 Vanowen Street in North Hollywood, California. It carries more than 400 product SKUs, is equipped with six smart refrigerated cabinets, four dry cabinets, and four delivery windows that can serve multiple customers at once. With the VenHub app now live in the Apple App Store and Google Play Store, consumers can enjoy access to products around the clock.

This inaugural location signals the beginning of a widespread rollout across southern California and eventually into communities throughout the USA. The smart stores operate around the clock without on-site staff, offering a faster, more convenient and secure environment that encourages consumers and retailers to embrace a fresh approach to shopping.

“I want to thank our shareholders and our partners for their support, and I also want to recognise the entire VenHub team for their passion, hard work and dedication to creating a smart store that will change the retail landscape for generations,” said Shahan Ohanessian, CEO of VenHub. “We will soon be releasing our launch plans across the United States, and we know our customers want their smart stores sooner rather than later. We are working diligently to meet the very high demand, and we thank our 1000-plus preorders for their support and patience. At the same time, we are relentlessly increasing our production capacity to ensure each VenHub store is smarter, faster and more convenient for store owners and consumers alike.”

VenHub has already begun outlining additional store openings in southern California and plans to accelerate its nationwide expansion, reflecting interest across the USA. The company also sees significant global demand and is preparing launch plans for other countries and continents.

By blending robotics, intelligent inventory management and secure unattended operations, VenHub (www.venhub.com) delivers a round-the-clock retail model that can adapt rapidly to shifting consumer demands and changing market conditions.
