Abstract

To prove that lean manufacturing is a way of life not only for industries, as well it could be applied in our daily life tasks. We found out that in the supermarkets, especially in Panda there is a major problem which is that a lot of time get wasted waiting in lines to checkout. Which causes crowding. This problem could lead to losing the customers.

In order to solve this problem, we applied several leans concepts such as 5S, Kanban, labelling, Andon, maintenance and some other ways to make the process more efficient.
