"Sam's Self Scan" at its very first store in Malaysia. The Personal Shopping System consists of Motorola Solutions portable handheld MC17 series mobile computers powered by Re-Vision B.V., their global partner and the world leading provider of self-scanning solutions which is based in the Netherlands. 

Equipped with this portable mobile computer device that comes with an integrated bar code scanner, customers will be able to perform self-scanning by scanning the barcode of the items they want to purchase, placing the items directly into a shopping bag as they walk through the store aisles. SAM's Self Scan allows shoppers to then head to the nearest dedicated payment counter. With the necessary information already scanned into the device, they can swiftly pay for their purchases without having to wait in long ques and burdened with unloading the shopping cart and re-bagging their purchases, helping to save time.

SAM's also houses a delicatessen called SAM's Deli, which offers freshly made premium Western, Eastern and local cuisine ranging from a variety of pastas, sushis, pastries, cakes and nasi lemak including a selection of beverages at reasonable prices.
