Scott AFB Exchange Expands Footprint to Jefferson Barracks with Unmanned Retail Market

Exchange leaders at Scott Air Force Base welcomed an unmanned retail market to Jefferson Barracks, making it the first on-the-go option for Army National Guard members on the installation.

Lt. Col. Seth Nelson joined Scott AFB Exchange General Manager Asia Gilchriest to cut the ribbon on the new self-serve market that gives shoppers a quick option for dining. Items offered include beverages, snacks, and more—including better-for-you items to keep service members ready and resilient.

“We’re excited to provide service members with a quick, healthy option for nourishment,” Gilchriest said. “Our command is always supportive of the Exchange’s ongoing initiatives to improve the quality of life for our military community.”
