Have you ever imagined being able to shop without waiting in lines, without depending on store hours, and without needing a cashier?

That’s the idea behind autonomous markets: modern spaces that combine technology and convenience to make everyday life easier.

Simply put, an autonomous market is a store that operates without fixed employees. The customer enters, chooses what they need, and pays through an app. Everything happens automatically, quickly, and securely.

How an autonomous market works

The experience is very intuitive.

The customer scans the QR Code to access the space, chooses the products they want to take, and completes the purchase through the app.

In just a few seconds, everything is paid for, and they can leave with their purchases.

Behind the scenes, technology takes care of the entire process.

Smart cameras, sensors, and management systems keep track of inventory, ensure security, and allow the operation to run 24 hours a day, every day of the week.

Why this model is growing so fast

Autonomous markets are gaining ground because they combine two things everyone wants: time and convenience.

Nowadays, no one wants to waste minutes in lines or depend on store hours to take care of simple tasks.

These spaces operate all the time, cost less to run, and can be installed in condominiums, companies, gyms, and other places with high foot traffic.

The result is a simpler, more modern, and more accessible shopping experience.

The future of retail is autonomous

Retail is undergoing a major transformation. People want to get things done quickly, safely, and digitally.

And autonomous markets fit perfectly into this new way of living.

They bring technology, efficiency, and data that support better decision-making.

It’s possible to know which products sell the most, which hours have the most movement, and even optimize restocking.

This makes the model smarter and more sustainable, both for consumers and for operators.

Why the autonomous market is the future

Technology that makes everyday life easier.

Lower costs and total control of operations.

Freedom to shop on your own time.

More conscious and sustainable consumption.

With all these benefits, autonomous markets are no longer just a trend — they are a reality that represents the future of retail.

During an appearance on the Business program by BM&C News, Daiane stated that the inspiration came from observing markets abroad: “Self-service is very strong outside Brazil, especially in the United States and Europe. We decided to adapt this model to the Brazilian market, starting with condominiums.”

The business model is based on franchises, with no company-owned stores, focusing on expansion through independent entrepreneurs. Currently, the network has 400 active convenience stores and another 300 in the implementation phase, with plans to open a new unit every 24 hours in 2025.

Operations Concentrated in the Southeast, but with National Expansion

Currently, about 60% of fast4you’s operations are concentrated in the state of São Paulo, reflecting the company’s strong presence in the Southeast region. However, the network already operates in nearly all Brazilian states, except Acre, Tocantins, and Piauí. The company also reports growth in regions like the North and Northeast.

However, the network already operates in nearly all Brazilian states, except Acre, Tocantins, and Piauí. The company also reports growth in regions like the North and Northeast.

The operation is 100% automated, and the franchisor provides full support, including supplier negotiations and training for franchisees.

Franchise Model and Financial Viability

Joining the fast4you model requires an initial fee, currently set at R$ 15,000, in addition to store setup costs. The investment is directed to the franchisee, while the company offers support in areas such as management, pricing, and operations.

According to Daiane, the strategy is to “facilitate access to entrepreneurship by offering a business model that is simple to implement and has low operational costs.” Franchisee profitability is assessed through feasibility analyses for each point of sale, considering logistical aspects and local market potential.

Strategic Partnerships and Impact on the Real Estate Market

The presence of these convenience stores in condominiums can increase property values by up to 10%. A recent FipeZap survey indicates that the availability of convenience stores can be a deciding factor for 30% of consumers when buying or renting a property, a finding that reinforces the viability of this model in urban centers.

Outlook and Challenges

fast4you’s goal for the coming months is to consolidate its expansion in the North, Northeast, and Central-West regions while strengthening its presence in the corporate sector. The plan includes opening one new store per day, reaching 365 new units per year. According to Cristiano Vanoni, CFO of fast4you, “Every 36 hours, a new unit is launched in Brazil. The goal now is to accelerate further, opening a store every 24 hours.” The initial model focused on autonomous stores in condominiums, but the expansion now includes operations in companies, gyms, and clubs.

The company faces challenges related to loss management and growing competition in the sector. “Losses are calculated and part of our planning. Monitoring technology and ongoing training help minimize risks,” explained Cristiano.

The company offers a more practical way to buy supermarket items, without having to go out or wait for online delivery.

Daiane Vanoni, CEO and founder of the company, explains how this works.

O post #22 | Do you know what Home Market is? (Interview with Daiane Vanoni) apareceu primeiro em Fast4you Home Market.

The Home Market concept in residential and commercial condominiums, with the installation of physical stores offering everyday products, purchases via app and suggestions of personalized offers is the niche that the startup fast4You Market will start testing in Greater Florianópolis in the coming months.

The first units will begin operating in September, in condominiums in the capital and São José. The company also has partnerships with some construction companies, which are already including this convenience store model in new projects, in addition to adapting other developments in use with the service.

As entrepreneur Daiane Vanoni, responsible for the new development in the region, recalls, this self-service model is an increasingly common practice around the world, but “what we did was adapt the concept to smaller spaces to better manage this type of business here in Brazil”.

The pandemic, on the one hand, delayed the implementation of the first projects a little, since condominium meetings were suspended and have now started to be resumed online. On the other hand, it can help to disseminate a service model based on convenience and with a focus on the use of technology, through the app where purchases are made.

“The idea came from a need, since purchases made through apps with scheduled delivery started to take longer and longer to arrive and going to the supermarket was eating up the little time left in the day. Now we generate innovation by working with the individualized purchasing profile , comfort by making quality products available at any time and any day, safety during the quarantine period that allows residents to avoid going to supermarkets with a high flow of people, the comfort of not having to wait in lines, property value increases by having a convenience store within the development, among other factors”, summarizes Daiane.

The condominium does not have to pay to have a store; it only needs to provide a space to set up the operation. “We have two models, one format for condominiums with over 100 units and another pocket format for condominiums with under 100 units. What changes is the product mix, as we adapt it according to demand. This mix varies between 150 and 600 diverse items ,” explains Daiane. To supply the stores, contracts are made directly with suppliers such as Nestlé, Coca-Cola, Unilever and multi-brand distributors.

The startup founder spent over 20 years in the corporate world, working for large retail and industrial companies such as Wal-Mart, Natura and Coca-Cola. She is now pursuing her long-held desire to start her own business based on her expertise in logistics and customer service. “Our expansion plan includes expanding into other cities and states soon,” Daiane summarizes.

Who has never had to go to the supermarket after a full day of work and still have to wait in line at the checkout? Find a parking space, look for products in huge aisles or even give up on a recipe because they didn’t have a product?

It is now possible to have a supermarket available to condominium residents 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and even within your condominium.

Fast 4 you – Home Market is the first startup in Santa Catarina to bring this innovative concept to residential and commercial condominiums!

A startup created by people with experience in large retail and industrial companies, with a strong concern for the consumer shopping experience.

We are very happy to be able to present this new feature to the condominium sector of Santa Catarina, and we are certain that we will make many people’s lives easier! Even more so in times of building our new normal!”

How it works:

We offer a mix of diversified products, such as basic and complementary groceries, frozen foods, beverages, hygiene, cleaning, etc. through a physical store within the condominium (new Home Market concept).
