Seorang pembeli mengambil wadah plastik dangkal dengan pegangan dan mulai mengisinya dengan roti, susu, dan buah. Wadah itu adalah keranjang. Lebih kecil dari troli belanja, keranjang ini cocok untuk belanja cepat atau toko dengan ruang terbatas.

Baskets encourage shorter visits and are common in pharmacies, convenience stores, and boutique settings. Some retailers provide both baskets and carts so customers can choose according to planned purchase volume. Stacking design allows efficient storage near the entrance. Materials range from traditional wicker looks to durable plastic.

In retail analytics the word “basket” also refers to the set of items a customer buys in one transaction. Merchandisers study basket composition to understand which products are purchased together. The physical basket remains a simple, effective tool for containing selections until payment.

A full basket at the checkout is the visible result of a successful store visit.
