Follow-on order expands Sapir Group's commitment to 7,000 smart carts, on the same terms as the original agreement
The expanded order follows significant growth in Sapir Group's retail footprint. Over the past two years, the group has acquired approximately 20 stores previously operated by Carrefour Israel, substantially expanding its store network and increasing the potential scale of the Cust2Mate deployment.
The increased commitment from Sapir Group further strengthens A2Z Cust2Mate's contracted deployment pipeline and reflects the Company's strategy of expanding with retail partners as they scale their store networks and deepen adoption of the Cust2Mate platform.
"Sapir Group's decision to expand its commitment to Cust2Mate is particularly significant because it demonstrates how our relationships can grow alongside our retail partners," said Gadi Graus, CEO of A2Z Cust2Mate Solutions Corp. "Sapir Group has expanded rapidly, and this additional order reflects both that growth and its continued confidence in our Smart Cart platform. For A2Z Cust2Mate, the expansion increases the scale of an existing deployment and reinforces our recurring-revenue model, while creating a larger installed base through which we can generate additional retail media and digital-services revenue."
In addition, the Company announces that it is currently renegotiating with Carrefour Israel the terms and conditions of its previously announced Carrefour Israel purchase order.
