Customer context
The published deployment is myCigara at 12b Oxford Road, Manchester. This spotlight covers that store only, not a chain-wide rollout.

Initial problem
The account describes a store-level need to replace traffic assumptions with entrance data. Sales can show what was purchased, but understanding the relationship between visits and purchases also requires a consistent visitor count.

SUS installation scope
SUS reports mounting an AI 3DPro2 counter centrally above the main entrance, covering the doorway and immediate threshold. The account describes staff exclusion, direction tracking and connection to live dashboards and historical reporting.

Reporting use
The article proposes using the resulting data to review rotas, promotions, merchandising and occupancy. It does not establish a completed, measured business improvement, so those uses are described as opportunities rather than a record of realised savings.

Operational change
The confirmed scope is an entrance-counting installation at the Oxford Road shop. The article's projected conversion gains, additional transactions and monthly revenue scenarios are deliberately excluded from this spotlight's results. No guaranteed return or verified sales uplift is claimed.

Evidence status
SUS myCigara installation article, published 23 February 2026; checked 19 September 2026. The installation is supplier-reported. Financial and conversion figures in the article are projections, not measured outcomes.
